You know it exists, so you're ahead of the average human already. :)
I only got to know what I know by studying the books and tapes and

an expert around here.

Klingon speaker with just the dictionary and you can't be one one
without it.

P.S. Did you make your name by stringing together words you liked,
or is it coincidence that it contains syllables meaning "political
authority" "judge/war" "succeed to power" and "strong"?
