WRT {De' potlh} there seem to be two versions.  {Duj De' potlh} "[ship] 
general specifications" with the quality {potlh} "be important":

   tlhIngan toQDuj Duj De' potlh
   Klingon Bird of Prey General Specifications. KBoP

and {potlh De'} "priority message" with the noun {potlh} "consequential 
thing, something important":

   HoD, yo' SeHyaH nIvvo' potlh De' wIHevtaH.
   Captain, we are receiving a priority message from [Fleet]
    Operations Command. (ST5 notes)

Note that this was written before {QIn} "message" appeared in KGT, which 
was then used on the reissued ST3 DVD:

   Qugh la'vaD QIn pav.
   [Urgent message for Commander Kruge. (untranslated?)]

with the related quality {pav} "be urgent".  (Anyone know whether Okrand 
provided the five untranslated lines on the back of the DVD case?)
