It's too bad that many of us can pronounce Klingon better than most Klingons
we've seen. I'm sure we all have funny Terran accents which we're not aware
of and have no way of discovering! For example, I also pronounce {ghajjaj}
as {ghaj jaj}, but WHAT IF Klingons really DO pronounce it {ghajaj}?
We all may sound like uneducated hinterlanders. (That sounds like a great
title for a new movie: "Hinterlander.")
