That {'op Qaghmey lutu'lu'} is kinda weird.  I read it in English 
approximately as "There are some of the mistakes."  Unfortunately, the rules 
for using {'op} are less than clear.

If I were going to write this sentence, I'd say it as

Qaghmey puS lutu'lu'
There are a few mistakes.

(Well, actually, if I were really writing this for myself, I'd have probably 
left the {lu-} off.  {Qaghmey puS tu'lu'})
