 Actually, we found out in the last HolQeD that <jatlh> and <ja'> are pretty
 much the only verbs of speech. Okrand specifically said that <jatlh> and
 <ja'> are verbs of speech, and that Klingon generally does NOT act like
 English, where just about any verb can be a verb of speech in the right
 context. He obviously left the door open for a few more verbs to be verbs of
 speech, but not too many. <ra'> does not look like a good candidate.

In KGT, there is also jach (yell) and jat (mumble) on page 30 along with jatlh
and ja'.  How should these words be treated?
