Another point of contention on this list. The most common convention (at
least the one I like best) is that we're not writing in true proper Klingon
orthography anyway; we're already making things easy on our
English-accustomed eyes by using roman characters, why not use punctuation
just as we're used to it? Besides, Okrand used punctuation (includijng
question marks) on the card that came with the Power Klingon tape.
