DloraH: 
: Yes, these are the right ones.


We also have the example:
{yoHbogh matlhbogh je SuvwI' Say'moHchu' may' 'Iw}
from the Klingon Anthem.
This example uses {je} instead of {'ej} presumably because it either
"sounds" better in this song, or because the song is traditional and uses
unusual grammar from the time/place it was originally written.
