<div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_extra">{&#39;oH} in this case means &quot;he,&quot; the subject of the sentence, i.e. the targh. (Of course one wouldn&#39;t refer to a targh as {ghaH}.)</div><div class="gmail_extra"><br></div>
<div class="gmail_extra">This brings up a question for me. A hesitant speaker is likely to be following normal word order when he interrupts himself, as the boy does in English. (Actually, I wouldn&#39;t expect a Klingon to be a hesitant speaker, but this is a boy. Besides, in Star Trek we&#39;ve seen Klingons hesitate while speaking, showing us that they are dissembling or trying to avoid saying the wrong thing.)</div>
