• The pronouns 'e' and net are used only in special sentence constructions (see section 6.2.5). [TKD 5.1/p.51]
• Klingon has two special pronouns, 'e' and net, which refer to the previous sentence as a whole. They are used primarily, though not exclusively, with verbs of thinking or observation (such as know, see). They are always treated as the object of the verb, and the verb always takes a prefix indicating a third-person singular object. What is a single sentence in English is often two sentences in Klingon. net is used only under special circumstances (see page 66), but 'e' is common. [TKD 6.2.5/p.65]
• When the verb of the second sentence has a third-person subject (that is, the pronominal prefix is 0) but the intended meaning is one or someone, rather than he, she, it, or they, net is used instead of 'e'. ¶ qama'pu' DIHoH net Sov One knows we kill prisoners. ¶ As above, the first sentence here is qama'pu' DIHoH We kill prisoners. The second sentence is net Sov One knows that. The full construction implies that it is common knowledge that the group to which the speaker belongs kills prisoners. ¶ Qu'vaD lI' net tu'bej One certainly finds it useful for the mission. [TKD 6.2.5/p.66]

only used as obj.

net (like 'e') is always used as the object of a sentence, and refers back to the previous sentence as a whole. When used, the verb of the second sentence alway takes the 0 prefix (indicating third-person subject/third-person singular object) and the full construction indicates that the speaker express something they believe they have in common with their peers (this is usually translated into English using the generic pronoun one).
