A bit of apposition with {wot <lan>}, but we can do that. I try to avoid
overdoing it, though, as it can get confusing.

This would do as clipped Klingon. There's no main verb.
Hmmm . . . does the sentence really say that?

I don't know how quotations work with verbs like {mugh}, but probably treat
them as the objects of the verb. Otherwise, I'd have to use {jI-} instead of
{vI-}.
And {-law'} doesn't mean you're guessing about how accurate your translation
is. It means you're guessing that you are translating at all!
