KLBC: Remixed tribbles.....



nuqneH

I'm trying a different approach....saying by each bit what I intended to say!
I hope it makes your lives slightly easier.....

The Klingon view of....
yIHmey!
-=-=-=-

Paragraph 1:
   HIvIt, qatlh chuSbogh Ha'DIbaHmey mach parHa' tera'nganpu'?
Tell me the truth. Why to Terrans like small noisy animals?

'IH yIHmey 'e' Har tera'nganpu.
Terrans believe that tribbles are beautiful.

qatlh 'IH?
Why are they beautiful?

'IH jIlwI' targh 'e' vIHar, 'ach 'oH luQoch.
I believe my neighbour's targ is beautiful, but they don't.


Paragraph 2:
   "Tribbles" Dochmey machqu' pong tera'nganpu'.....
Terrans call these very small things "tribbles".....

'IH Ha'DIbaH nuq, nachHey ghajbe'bogh 'ej vay'Hey ghajbe'bogh?
What creature is beautiful which has no apparent head and no apparent
anything [else]?

SoHDaq vay' chagh Dop nuq 'e' DaSovbe' - chaq yIH.
You won't know what side will drop something on you - probably another
tribble.


Paragraph 3:
   'IH Ha'DIbaH nuq, yIHmey law'qu' boghmoHbogh Ha'DIbaH, nom jonta'pa'
luteb, 'ej neH Sop 'ej chuS?
What creature is beatiful, that gives birth to so many tribbles that they fill
up an
engine-room, and only eat and be noisy?


Paragraph 4:
    'ach yIHmey vutlaH vay'.
However it it possible to cook tribbles.

pIj yIH nay'mey DaSamlaHbe' Qe'meyDaq Suchbogh tera'nganpu'.
Often you cannot find courses of tribble at restaurants which Terrans visit.

yIHmey Surghbe' machqu'mo' 'ej taj DaruQ nuqDaq 'e' DaSovbe'.
You cannot skin them because they are very small, and you don't know where to
put the knife.

yIH DaSamchugh yInbogh, chuSqu'.
If you can find a tribble that is alive, it is very noisy.

'ach roqegh 'IwchabvaD nay' 'oH yIH'e'.
However, tribble makes a good [side-]dish for rokeg blood pie.


Paragraph 5:
    nuHmey QaQ bIH yIHmey'e'.
Tribbles are good weapons.

chegh gholpu' puSqu' chaHvaD yIHmey law' luvo'DI'......
Very few adversaries return when many tribbles are thrown at them.....


Paragraph 6:
    'ach DaH HoHnIS yIHmey.
However, [as vermin] they must die immediately.

cha' DIS yIH HoHwI' lu'ogh tejma'.
It took our scientists two years to invent the tribble predator.

'ej qaS nuq?
And what happens?

'oH nIH tera'ngan. wejpuH.
A Terran steals it. Charming.

vaj maHvaD 'uy' yIHmey nob Kirk (taHqeq!).
Then that taHqeq Kirk jives us a[nother] million tribbles.

'e'vaD chaH muStaH HoD qolotlh.
Captain Koloth still hates him for that.


Paragraph 7:
    chaq SaD yIHmey DIboS 'ej USS Enterprise-vaD DInob??
Perhaps we could round up a thousand tribbles and give them to the USS
Enterprise??


I hope this lot decodes into something vaguely comprehensible ;)
