I must disagree here. Although it is probably not as freely used as in
English or Portuguese, there is a way to say thank you in tlhIngan Hol.
The verb "to thank" is *tlho*. thus if you are thanking just one person
the word is *qatlho' *(I thank you). If you are thanking more than one
person the word is *Satlho' * (I thank you all.)
