Plural mean Klignons and singular engine means you need to say {luDabtaHmo'}.
The conjunction {je} is for joining nouns, not verbs and not verbs acting as
adjectives. We can't just string multiple descriptive verbs together. It's
in KGT, but I can't find the page. You could say: {valbogh ghojwI' Dogh jIH}.
