Since lojmIt tI'wI'nuv is speaking about Klingon, what he said was
obviously exactly what he meant. See the introductory remarks to the
lexicon in The Klingon Dictionary: "Note that {ch}, {gh}, {ng}, and
{tlh} are considered separate letters."
Whether or not other language references calls it a trigraph is
unimportant, and we do not hear those words.
