RE: KLBC: tlhIngan bom

Hmmm . . . I guess that would be a "pre-script"?

Good word choices!  There are only two suggestions I'd like to make.  First, 
to say "children's choir,"  use the possessive construction, as described in 
TKD section 3.3.4.  {puqpu' bomwI'ghom}.  Otherwise, you're saying "choir 
children."

Second, I recommend you use {-lI'} instead of {-taH}.  You are forming a 
children's choir, and this has a known goal: a complete children's choir.  
{-lI'} is in TKD section 4.2.7.
