RE: Translating into Klingon
Translating a novel into the Klingon Language, isn't
the only thing that puts your personal life on hold,
your lessons can do the same thing, LOL. Your lessons
are quite challenging & I believe that to get what you
are teaching you must study & practice. & in the end
its worth it, in my opinion. Just thought I would
throw in my 2 cents. Thanks by the way Dlorah for the
fine lessons you have sent me. I have learned a lot.
