QaQbej lutvam.

>Hoch Qup law' jIH Qup puS.

It makes perfect sense, of course, but I've never seen a {law'/puS}
phrase used as an "sublative" in canon, and it seems a bit odd.

>yItmeH naQwIj vIpep, 'ej mapaw'DI' 'ontar chor
>DuQ naQwIj. DuQchu'be', vaj ghor, 'ej vIchagh.

majQa'!  Whether {ghor} means "cause to be broken" or "become broken",
this sentence works perfectly.
