Well, if you want to go for sounds, then consider this.  In many Terran
languages, the word for mother starts with an "m" sound
in imitation of a baby's suckling.  Since the Hol word for mother
is <SoS>, can we extrapolate <chay' tlhutlh tlhIngan ghu'>?
Maybe this would lead to a better understanding of tlhIngan
etymology.  What sounds would a <tlhIngan ghu'> first utter?
Based on the limited canon we have, and the writings of our
more experienced <jatlhwI'pu'>, what are the frequencies of
letters?  This is <HolQeDna'>.
