Simply remember that type 7 suffixes can't go just anywhere.

Perfective not really necessary (although not wrong) above. Just make
sure you're not thinking of it as a past tense.

You missed out part of the sentence. "Sometimes I find a painstick a
useful reminder." I could have said {vay' vIqawmoHmeH} - "In order
for me to make someone remember" but I left it vague the way some
canon -meH sentences are.

{Daj} is "be interesting" not "be interested in." This idea seems to
be expressed differently in many languages and non-native speakers
always get tangled up in it. Try {jIHvaD Dajqu' QoQ}.
Klingon music has been discussed at length here, and then went off
list as it got too technical for known Klingon vocabulary. Search for
a thread late last year with a name like yu' bIm 'egh, and write to
charghwI' if no one contacts you about the off-list discussion.
(For those who don't know: for the last several years all list
postings, except for a few occasions when the software went haywire,
are archived at /tlhIngan-Hol
Each year is subdivided by months, and there is also a search engine
that accepts regular expressions and lets you search a whole year at a
time. It's amusing to read the early postings of people who are now
skilled, and to watch the grammarians struggle stupidly with things
beginners know now, because we have more information.)
