/'IwwIj Doq/ - my red/orange blood
/Doq 'IwwIj/ - my blood is red/orange
Also note that while red, orange, blue yellow, green are standard
separate colours for English speakers, they are exotic variations for
Klingons. Unless you need to distinguish between shades of Doq or
SuD, using the basic colours is more normal. Otherwise you're doing
the equivalent of using the names off an artist's palette. "Burnt
Sienna" or "Lake #2." The Klingon for "red" is simply /Doq/.
