First of all, according to the font available from KLI the letters would be:

gh-y-y-w-l-ng-a-l-y-w-v

those are (Y)'s not (H)'s.

second, the font used is not the one from KLI.  So these really aren't the
right letters anyway.  The font used matches the symbols found in 'The Star
Trek Encyclopedia' under the entry 'written languages'.  These were just
some symbols that were thown in; only the English symbols make any sense.
