I recently bought a copy of the game Klingon Honor Guard. It's an older
game, but it was cheap, and I just built a new computer with the power to
handle it.
The game comes with a manual, and in it there are a few Klingon sentences.
Most are proverbs from TKW, but two are brand new. Unfortunately, they are
not very good Klingon. They use Klingon words, but they almost completely
disregard Klingon grammar. I commend the game makers for trying, but they
failed.
Thus I present this KLBC challenge: translate this English sentence.
--- First, harm not the honor of the patient. ---
Some advice - a strictly literal translation will NOT be the best
translation. Also, the hardest part will be "first". Do NOT use <wa'DIch>.
The translation provided by the game manual can be found at the bottom of
this message. I advise against reading it if you want to respond to the
challenge.
