We have {woD} "to throw away"

> nowhere

I don't know. We have {Dat} "everywhere", but I'm not sure there is an easy
way to say this.
You might be able to get away with something like {paghDaq} "in/at/to
nothing", but it seems like a stretch.

> keep
> as in 'to keep'

{pol} "to save, to keep"

> come for

Approach this in context. They are coming for what? To take me away? All my
money?, etc.
Try a {-meH} clause, along with {ghoS}:
{muSuchmeH, ghoS loDnI'wI', parmaqqayDaj je} "My brother and his girlfriend
are coming to visit me."
{HuchwIj Hoch lunIHmeH, ghoS quvHa'wI'pu' jay'!} "Those ba****ds are coming
for my money!"

> forget

{lIj} "to forget"

> but

{'ach} or {'a}
