Klingon doesn't exhibit much morphophonemic change, at least on paper. So when talking about Klingon phonemes QIch wab speech sound probably suffices.
However I do catch myself occasionally assimilating non-retroflex codas to retroflex syllable onsets; I say / ɖaɭ / for Dal instead of / ɖal /, and / ʂoɻ / for Sor instead of / ʂor /.
This is a noun by the way. It has to do with grammar, but the word 'phoneme' itself is a noun.
Technically, it has to do with phonology, but you're right, this is a (non-fabulant, non-body-part) noun and should be reclassified.
