call me naQ'avwI'. *grin* seriously, though -- watching the flick with
my younger brother, i thought the entire script might be good to
translate (or, at least certain scenes... those in "The Pit" come to
mind). does anyone know where i can get a copy of the movie script (in
English)?

i agree with charghwI's commentary; it works, nice and simple, as
<yIHeghrup>, and by trying to add {-'egh} i only managed to tangle the
line... <yIHeghrup> it is. *grin* thanks for the help, folks.
