RE: New words
I recommend cross-checking with Klingonska Akademien; they have slightly fewer words, but they always list sources, and at least one of the words you mentioned can be found there. You may also find the Archive of Okrandian Canon useful; it's no longer up-to-date, but it's still quite handy for looking some stuff up.
I believe qurgh learned SaHHa'ghach directly from Okrand earlier this year. qar'a'.
Some of those words - such as tlhIghaq - I believe are from DeCandido's works. I list many of those words here:
http://community.livejournal.com/klingon/56112.html
[There I've also listed 'uj'a' and jIn as unsourced. I've since confirmed 'uj'a' (in an old e-mail from Voragh), but according to maHvatlh jIn is a misconception; apparently it started out being used as a hypothetical word, but then came into use.]

Thanks for the links!
By the way, many of the newer words can also be found in the LiveJournal
community http://community.livejournal.com/klingon
I have a question for Voragh:
I've been trying to update my own private database for new words and in the
Hol 'ampaS link I found various new words I didn't have yet. For some others
I have "???" as the source, not knowing what the canon source is.
Voragh, if you happen to find the time over QISmaS, could you tell me what
you know about the following words (Okrand's translations, reference and
example sentences)?
'elI'jaH = unexpected visitor
SaHHa'ghach = disinterest
pIlHa' = be unmotivated
SaHHa' = be unconcerned (about)
tlhIghaq = trigak (a predator animal)
moqbara = mok'bara (I have the spelling moQbara', so...?)
mevaq = mevak dagger
yaDpach = toenail
puyjaq'a' = super nova
Do QIn = instant message (IM)
Some of those are of course regular grammatical constructions, like pIlHa'
or Do QIn, but I'd like to know if they're official, before I add "random"
words to my Lexique Pro database.
