Used in canon:
qaja'pu' HIqaghQo' = HIqaghQo' qaja'pu'
I told you not to interrupt me.
I told you, "Don't interrupt me!"
"Don't interrupt me," I told you. TKD
HQ 12.2:8: Another verb, {ghang}, is used to express the idea of a premature ending. If, using the same examples, the voyage is cut short or the song is interrupted before the final part is sung, one would say:
leng [lu]ghangDI' SuvwI'pu' 'IQ chaH
When the warriors end the voyage prematurely, they are sad.
bom [lu]ghangDI' SuvwI'pu' tlhutlh chaH
When the warriors end the song prematurely, they drink.
Note that the voyage and the song cannot end themselves. Someone has to end them. [sic! {lu-} omitted in original]
