I got it. I *do* spend some of my life away from my computer. Especially
since it was the New Year holiday.

I promise, I'll get to every KLBC question. Be patient, and don't answer
language issues in them before I do. Thanks.
Your sentence is quite correct for "Destroy the alien ship."
> another question,how do I write "dont insult me!"?maybe *chotIchbe'*?
You have just written a statement, not a command. "You do not insult me."
You must first use an imperative prefix. The subject is "you," and the object
is "me." {HI-}.
Also, when using imperatives, you don't use the {-be'} suffix. To say
"don't," use {-Qo'}.

This is the second mail you've sent (which I've seen) with the word *{Qap'} at
the end of it. There is no such word. There is {Qapla'} "success" (a noun)
and {Qap} "succeed, work, function" (a verb). What is it you're trying to
say?
