I didn't know there was a Klingon word for restaurant. Now that I've
found it I can try to write what I wanted to : -
SopwI'pu parHa' Qe'wI'pu' vulqanvo'
Vulcan restaurateurs like diners.
I want to say clap hands as a closing remark to my email : how does
peqIp ghopDu'
fit in with Klingons? [I'm asking for cultural comment as well as
grammar here.]
