I've noticed that that's something of an unintentional Spoonerism, at least
our interpretation of it before: {vavpu'ma' DImuvpa'.} Well, the {DI-}
isn't necessary, but for them to be the same number of syllables, it fits
well.
Also, we rarely see how good a translator Okrand actually is, but with the
recent English "translation" of The Klingon Anthem, I can tell. You can
see it almost all through it.
