Participate on the list. Write in Klingon. At least read the Klingon
discussions here. Try to decipher what's said. Try slowly. See if you
can parse a sentence or two from a longer post. Try writing very simple
sentences (DON'T say "OK, I'm going to translate Beowulf... damn, I can't
do anything." Start with "See Jane run." Better still, start with "The
captain is foolish.") Mostly, try to pay attention to any Klingon
discussion here, and try to make at least a little sense of it. Save posts
and read them when you have time. Read them months later when your
abilities are better. Keep at it.
