It is not unheard of for well known sayings to be (often intentionally)
gramatically dodgy - one in particular springs to mind:
"To boldly go where no man has gone before."

At first glance, I assumed it was <tlhIngan maH> But that would be <we are
Klingon>, saying you, together, are the race of thlingan. But <thlnganpu'
maH> would be <we are Klingons>, saying that the each of the group are
Klingon. Very little difference, but I think <thlInganpu' maH> would be
more acceptable. Opinions?
