I just discovered some early Klingon stories of mine, back from when I
didn't even know about the KLI. There are three, but only one is finished, and
that one is really short.

"jIHagh! batlh yay DatIch! cha'logh vum wa'leS!"
"lu' qaH!"

It was meant to be a translation of an Asimov story. Hmm... some knotty
points in it: "gherarD 'o'nIyl" is Gerard O'Neal, "prInston" is "Princeton,"
"marS" in Mars, and I think that somewhere or other there's "rabItmey" "rabbits"
and "chIqenmey" "chickens." This was a good exercise in plural prefixes, as I
remember.
Last one.
