No, that would be a infringement of copyright laws (and
such). Furthermore most people on this list think you learn more by
doing yourself than by simply copying.

I did the same thing (write my own tlhIngan Hol interpreter). I typed
in all the words in TKD myself. I've added a few that I found on this
list.
All the new words since TKD can be found in the back-issues of KLI's
magazine. I still need to order them (I miss about 16 of them, I
believe!). But at least I'm a member of KLI now, so I'll get the first
one that comes out. I'll wait until I've seen that one before deciding
how fast I want to order the back-issues (e.g. all 16 at once, if I
have the money, or in batches of, say, 4 at a time)
Good luck with your Klingon language helper!
