No, Okrand hasn't addressed this.

/nImbuS wej majaH, He yInab/?
Actually, the line in Star Trek V, */nImbuS wej maghoS; He yInab/ is in
error. The prefix on /ghoS/ is wrong. It should be:
nImbuS wej wIghoS; He yInab!
We go to Nimbus III; plan a course!
(Set course for Nimbus III!)
With the information we now have, we know it could also be:
nImbuS wejDaq wIghoS; He yInab!
If you used /jaH/, it could be
nImbuS wej wIjaH; He yInab!
or
nImbuS wejDaq wIjaH; He yInab!
