Ed, you need to read The Klingon Dictionary again. There are a few
concepts in there that didn't sink in the first time. Don't think
I'm singling you out for abuse, though. *Everyone* has to read it
through, cover to cover, several times, before they notice most of
what's in there.
Specifically, you've missed the entirety of section 6.3. "To be".
That's where the use of {'oH} to mean "it is" is explained fully.
You also ignored the small task I set for you, so I'll repeat it:
