Hi! I'm SuStel, the list's Beginners' Grammarian. My job here is to help out
newcomers and beginners in learning Klingon. I correct grammar, provide
advice, chat, offer unwanted opinions (well, sometimes) for those trying to
learn Klingon. We have a system around here: if you put KLBC at the beginning
of the subject line of a message, it marks it as a beginner level topic. This
may be a question for me, or just conversation with other beginners in
general. KLBC is not limited onto to participation by beginners, though!
Anyone may contribute. The rule here is that the first person allowed to
discuss the grammar of a KLBC post is the BG (me). Once I've gotten through
with it, if there are any corrections or additions you think of, go ahead and
post. This keeps the beginner's confusion down to a minimum.
The two most important web sites to be aware of, if you are not already:
The Klingon Language Institute
http://www.kli.org
This list's FAQ:

The best way to learn to speak Klingon? Practice! You've got The Klingon
Dictionary, right? Keep studying it! And participate in this list!
