I think it's ok - I'd understand it. Perhaps *yIghuHmoH!* would be better
for "Warning!".
Hey, SuStel and charghghghwI'!
ghuH = prepare for, be alerted to - needs an object, yes?
ghuHmoH = alert, OR lit. cause someone or something to be alerted to or
prepared for... needs agent AND object!?!?!
Is it OK to use -moH on such an inherently transitive verb, and not use a
proper object, as in Duncan's example above? If ghuH was an either/or verb
like Sop or yaj, it would be clear. But would this _require_ an object?
