Grammar Highlight Each Day (your new name)

Disclaimer:  This is only a highlight, not a complete teaching tool.  Hope it 
helps someone out there.

When choosing a Klingon name for oneself, one need not obey grammar rules.  
One may extract syllables from other words even when those syllables are 
undefined and therefore unusable alone in spoken or written language.  
Furthermore, even normal Okrandian Klingon spelling and pronunciation rules 
need be adhered to.

Examples:  B'Elanna is not Okrandian Klingon spelling at all.  The name is 
valid.  Worf contains the letter "f," a letter not in Okrandian Klingon.  One 
may choose such a name.

Qapla'

peHruS (two extracted syllables which have no standalone meaning)
