Boy, if anything ever needed to be in the FAQ, this one does.
I'll restrain myself from my normal rant on this subject, and simply point
out the phrase in TKW:
Heghlu'meH QaQ jajvam
Though I will add that my personal favorite for capturing the *meaning* of
the original, which is not constrained by the *language* of the original,
is charghwI''s recasting:
DaHjaj batlh jIHeghrup
pItlh.
