Note exception neH ''to want''〕 The adverbs, indirect objects and locatives of the latter sentence go after the subject, but before the ’e’ 〔Okrand 2011〕: bIpIv ’e’ vItu’ :I observe that you are healthy :''I see that you're healthy'' 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Klingon grammar」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
