=Tl> knows my hobbies asked me what the word would be translated... (re: 
=Tl> Diet Coke) 
=Tl> I looked up diet, fast, starvation, none seem to be there...

Which is why, in Klingon, you must always be creative...

Diet as adjective? pI'Ha'lu'meH. (A diet would presumably be pI'Ha'lu'meH
pIDjolev). Coke? Well, to distinguish it from coffee and all, I think
tera' peyHIqqIj would do. SO Diet Coke: pI'Ha'lu'meH tera' peyHIqqIj, or
perhaps pI'Ha'qangwI' tera' peyHIqqIj.
