RE: lugh'a' mughghachvam?
Ah! That explains it! Almost like making several English words your one whole Klingon noun...(as in your example: the fear of drinking - four words to us, but it all represents a noun). GOT IT! Thanks again, SuStel!

That entirely depends on what you want to say. If I want to say "continuous
drinking," I'll say /tlhutlhtaHghach/. If I want to say "Fear of drinking,"
I'll say /tlhutlhvIpghach/. You CANNOT just say "a drink."
