pab vIqeltaHvIS jIjang:
The verb prefix {bo-} indicates a plural second-person subject. That
means the subject is "y'all". {vay'} doesn't agree with {bo-}. Either
use a verb prefix that indicates a third-person subject, or make the
subject {tlhIH} (in which case you can leave it off entirely, as it adds
nothing to the sentence). >>

'ach qatlh bIjatlh {vay'} doesn't agree with {bo-}?
