DujHoD:
: But "Jedi" is pronounced with an "i" sound that more closely resembles
{ay},
: qar'a'? So wouldn't another (better?) transliteration be {je'Day}?
Much better, and as a bonus it doesn't mean anything in Klingon.
FYI, Okrand once rendered Lady Di as {Day joH} for the Radio Times:
DaH nuq ta'pu' Day joH?
What has Lady Di done now?
