Locatives come first. You have one as the last word in your
apparent attempt at a sentence. This never happens.
You also apparently disconnected the two syllables of {HIvje'},
while screwing up the upper/lower case of the letters and then
reversed them, dropping the apostrophe for no apparent reason.
Add that your English translation doesn't make any more sense
than the Klingon did. What, exactly, are you trying to
accomplish here?

{-meH} clauses preceed the noun or verb they modify. Yours
follows what it seemingly is modifying. Then you try to use
{bIQ} as a verb of quality. It is a noun.
These are mistakes enough that it is fair to say you should
abandon this project and start over with something less
ambitious. This is not insulting. Just start working with things
that are simple enough that you can handle them. Okay?
