Re: [Tlhingan-hol] Klingon spoken in latest Big Bang Theory?

Wiechu ([email protected])



I was able to hear something like DaHjaj &quot;mopa&quot; &#39;oH, DaHja..... There&#39;s probably a letter missing between &quot;mo&quot; and &quot;pa&quot; but it was too laud for me to understand what&#39;s there. It definitely isn&#39;t mopwI&#39; as there&#39;s a clear &quot;a&quot; at the end of that word.<div>

<br></div><div>I was also surprised that Klingon version started with DaHjaj while english equivalent didn&#39;t even contain &quot;today&quot; word.</div><div><br></div><div><span style="border-collapse:collapse;color:rgb(136,136,136)">--<br>

&gt; &gt; Did anyone catch the last episode?  It&#39;s called<br>
&gt; &quot;The Countdown<br>
&gt; &gt; Reflection&quot; and Wolowitz goes to space.  At one<br>
&gt; point, Sheldon speaks<br>
&gt; &gt; Klingon.  He says part of a sentence before<br>
&gt; getting interrupted and is<br>
&gt; &gt; forced to continue in English.  Did anyone catch<br>
&gt; what he said?<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; I think the first word was {DaH} but as soon as he said<br>
&gt; it other<br>
&gt; &gt; characters talked over him.  But he seems to have<br>
&gt; said more than just<br>
&gt; &gt; {DaH}.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; I heard the first word as {DaHjaj}.  The closed<br>
&gt; captions were of no help, just something like &quot;Speaks<br>
&gt; Klingon&quot;. <br>
&gt;<br>
<br>
</div>I also heard {DaHjaj}. I&#39;d be very surprised if they wrote more than a few words for him, and I doubt it had anything really to do with his speech in English (which did not contain the word &quot;Today&quot;, as I recall).<br>


<div class="im"><br>
&gt; I did notice a &quot;translator&quot; listed as the credits flashed<br>
&gt; by, but this could have referred to the Russian translations<br>
&gt; in the episode.  (Wolowitz is launched into space on a<br>
&gt; Russian rocket to the International Space Station and there<br>
&gt; was some dialogue with ground control in Kazakhstan.)<br>
<br>
</div>What I caught made perfect sense, I just wonder if it was technically accurate.  If so, then I now know that &quot;Blast off!&quot; in Russian is &quot;poshol&quot; (literally &quot;It went!&quot;), which is kind of neat.<br>
