Hi :) And a question...

Hi all, I'm new here:)

I can barely utter a word of Klingon but I really want to learn.

Anyhoo my question is... how might one go about saying "I want to kill 
myself" ?

I was all proud of myself thinking I had translated it correctly as " 
HoH'egh jIneH " , but my friend insists that it is "jIHoH'eghqang"

But I am confused... to me the one my friend thinks it is is "I am willing 
to kill myself" (because the dictionary says -qang is willing). If I were 
WILLING to kill myself I would have done it already. To do the act is a 
desire, a WANT. So who, if either of us, is correct? If neither of is are, 
what is the proper translation?

Thanks:)
