Uu> I was wondering what the standard naval ranks would be in tlhIngan,
Uu> i.e. Ensign, Lieutenant, etc.
Uu> Also, army-style ranks.
For naval ranks, the Klingon Assault Group here uses:
Ensign: lagh
Lieutenant Junior Grade: SoghHom
Lieutenant: Sogh
Senior Lieutenant: Sogh'a'
Lieutenant Commander: la'Hom
Commander: la'
Captain: HoD
Admiral: 'aj
Note that we do not say "Sogh la'" since the -Hom dimunitive suffix works so
perfectly. We use ra'wI' as the position "commander of a ship".
Army style I can't help you with!
