KLBC: beam me up

There's a verb "beam (aboard)" {jol}. This one is a transitive verb, so it can take an object [i.e.
you can beam "something" aboard]
Now we need the appropriate suffix, which is an imperative (command), found in TKD section
4.1.2
The subject is "you", object is "me", so we find {HI-}
When we put these together, it's finished:
{HIjol} "beam me aboard"
Do you have TKD? If you do, you should read it again; this phrase is one of the few introducing
sentences on page 1 of TKD.
