<< [I invite eager students to post translations of this message.]
Hoch vIlIjpa' 'op wanI' vIDel vIneH.>>
qaDlIj vIlaj!
<< mabomchu'ta'! SeymoH <taHjaj wo'>.
We have sung excellently! "Long live the Empire" is exciting.
<<Qanqor bom chu' vItIv je -- bavchuqlaw' QoQ tlheghmey. >>
I also enjoyed Krankor's new song -- the lines of music seemed to orbit each
other.
<<'ej not <DaHjaj po> lIjlu' 'e' vItul.>>
And I hope "This morning" is never forgotten.
<< loQ qetlh 'uQ wa'DIch Soj, 'ach Dajbej juppu'. >>
The first dinner's food was a little uninteresting, but friends were
definitely interesting.
<< mutlhej be'nalwI', puqloDwI', puqloDwI' jup je. >>
My wife and son, and my son's friend, accompanied me.
<< maSoptaHvIS, muyu' puq: "How do you say 'Good eating tonight' in Klingon?"
>> While we were eating, the child questioned me: "...?"
<<vIjangmeH burghwIjvo' SIp chuS vItlhuD. Haghchu' chaH.>>
To answer, I emitted noisy gas from my stomach.
<< DaH qIDwIj vIpay -- reH *burp* chaH jay'.>>
Now I regret my joke -- THEY're always burping, doggone it!
<< Dunqa' <pegh mu'>. Qujvetlh vIbej 'e' vItIv. rut tlhaQbej mu'mey.>>
"Secret word" was really great. I enjoyed watching that game. Occasionally the
words were definitely funny.
<< <nIbpoH> 'oH wa' mu''e'. DelmeH, jatlhlu' <qaSqa'law'>. yajbe' qoch.>>
"Deja vu"" was one word. To describe it, "It seems to happen again" was said.
The partner didn't understand.
<< SIbI' jatlh ghol <qaSqa'law'>. tlhoS ravDaq vIpum jIHaghqu'mo'.>>
Immediately the opponent said "It seems to happen again". I almost fell to
the floor because I laughed so hard.
<< SIbDoH wov wIbej 'e' wInID. nIS 'engmey. >>
We tried to observe a bright satellite. Clouds interfered.
<< wInIDqa'DI' maQap 'ej quvwIj vItoDlaw'.>>
When we tried again we succeeded, and I feel we rescued our honor.
<< DISvam maH puS HoS wa'ben maH puS puj. >>
This year we were fewer than last year.
<< chaq mapuS, 'ach mapo'bej! jIyay'. >>
Perhaps we were few, but we were expert! I was dumbfounded.
<< motlh mayajchuqlaHmeH ngeD. pIj maba' 'ej majaw neH. >>
Usually it was easy for us to understand each other.
<< wanI'vammo' jIQuchqu'. roD jIja'nISchugh tlhIngan Hol vIlo'. chongbej
Holmaj!>>
I was very happy because of this. Usually if we had to speak we used Klingon.
Our language is great!
<< Qov jech pov Daleghta'be' bIDo'Ha'. tlhIngan SuvwI' qu' ghaHbej, 'ej
Sut chenmoHwI' po' ghaHlaw' je.
Too bad you haven't seen Qov's excellent costume. She was definitely a fierce
Klingon warrior, and whoever made the suit seemed expert too.
<< <wa'nem Qo'noSDaq! wa'nem juHqo'Daq!> mu'meyvam vIjatlhtaHvIS jIpaS.>>
"Next year on Kronos! Next year on the Home World!" I am late in saying these
words.
<< rInchoHtaHvIS qep'a' vIjatlhnISpu'. >>
I should have said them while the convention was finishing up.
<< 'ach mu' paS QaQ law' pagh mu' QaQ puS, qar'a'?>>
But late words are better than no words, right?
<<-- ghunchu'wI' >>
qep'a' qunlIj Dajqu' vItIvchu'!
