Don't forget that--on camera at least--they're also trying to say their
lines with a mouthful of jagged prosthetic teeth! Have you noticed that this
forces them to speak a bit slower and results in some actors having a
similar breathy Klingon "accent"? A nice, unintended side effect.
Anyone know whether Okrand has ever trying speaking tlhIngan Hol through a
set of these dentures?
