My problem (please bear with me):
+ My best friend is getting married in October & I am the best man
+ He is a fairly dedicated trekkor as well as a novice Klingon
language enthusiast (has the beginner book and an audio tape)
+ My "toast" at the reception will incldue an Italian
saying/blessing as well as a Gaelic one.
+ Recognizng his enthusiasm (and as a decent fan myself) I think
that a Klingon saying should be incorporated as well
+ I know maybe four words in Klingon
Why should you consider helping me:
+ If you don't I'll try it anyway. I'll by the book and do my best
but may end up dishonoring the lanaguage(which none of us want)
+ I'll at least introduce the language to 200+ people
+ It would be the honorable thing to do
+ If you all can't/won't help I don't know who would/could
So could you help me with:
+ A 5 to 12 word saying appropriate for a wedding (I undestand
full well that it can't be schmaltzy or be about "sweet love",
but if extreme references to smashing enemies or something like
that could be avoided, that might work better)
+ I'll need the english and Klingon translations with phonetic
pronunciation help (& if possible an idea on how to get it into
the Klingon character set- I know there's a font out there)
Thank you for you patience and, in advance, for you help.
