For the record, that second word should be:
{DachenmoHchu'be'pu'} "You have not perfectly formed it."
You transposed type 6's and 7's.

The only sticking point I had was the placement of {je}. {je}, meaning
"also", goes immediately after the verb:

{tIn 'ej moH je loDvetlh.}
"That man is small, and he's ugly, too."

{bIQoch, 'ej jIQoch je.}
"You disagree, and I also disagree."
