Thank you, I understand more clearly now. After posting that, and having the
correction made, I wondered how I could have been so remiss. I found a
message in the archive that referenced HQ 12-98:

With relevant excerpt:
WM: And a typical direct object of ja' would be the person addressed and
a typical object of the verb jatlh would be the thing you say.

But, I still misused {ja'}
