RE: [KLBC] I need help with a sentence

We have a word for "deny".
Do' is "fortunately", not "hopefully". We have the verb tul "hope", which
you could use with 'e'.
> can I use {qatlh} like I did?)
No. qatlh is a question word. It turns the sentence into a question.
You might be able to use meq "reason" (n)
bItlhob. jItem. meqwIj Dayaj 'e' vItul.
Don't forget about the 'multiple sentence' option.
