charghwI': "Careful. Just because Okrand uses punctuation in the Romanized
writings does not mean that Klingons necessarily use it in pIqaD..."
I suspect that the Klingons don't use punctuation. Assuming that the Klingon
language is something like Ancient Chinese, the reader must make assumptions
about where sentences begin and end. Klingon word-structure and
sentence-structure may actually make punctuation less necessary than it is in,
say, English.
(Egyptian had no punctuation either.)
