(A while ago I said "Why do people
study Klingon? Because of Star Trek.")
Dochvam vIjatlhtaH
'ach meqmey law'.

(I still think this, but there are many
reasons.)
jIHvaD bang Hol 'oh tlhIngan Hol'e'
Hovmey bang 'oH
batlh bang 'oH

(For me, Klingon is a romance language.
It is the romance of the stars,
it is the romance of honor.)
'ervum 'oHbe' tlhIngan Hol'e'
Dochvam 'oH bel'e'
-----------
(Klingon is not a utilitarian workhorse,
it is a thing of pleasure.)
HIja', "'utbe' bel". 'ach jISaHbe'
-----------
(Yes, "Pleasure is nonessential",
but I don't care.).
