Okay, so I exaggerated; you may not consider this to be "mainstream", but
I thought it was interesting.
While waiting in an interminably long check-out line at the supermarket
today, I thumbed through a copy of Disney Adventures, which is a monthly
children's magazine. (I thought it would be a more erudite read than the
tabloids typically on display at the check-out.) This issue featured
Star Trek and it included a page devoted to the Klingon language,
complete with sample tlhIngan Hol phrases. I was amused to find it even
made passing mention of HolQeD.
I think Guido once proposed the idea of making a Klingon cartoon or
illustrated primer. That would probably be an excellent method of teaching
the language to younger readers or any non-linguists who have difficulty
muddling through the grammar section of TKD.
