This doesn't really work. For starters, <maj> is an exclamation and acts as
a sentence all by itself. It really cannot work as a part of another. It's
probably best to use a whole different verb: <choghuHmoH> - "you warned me".

<paQDI'norgh> is defined as "teachings", and I think of it more as a set of
ideas an principles rather than a concrete course. Think of "the teachings
of Confucious", for example. Of course, this could be completely wrong. I'm
not sure what I would call a "course".
