Re: Canonical Klingon
I've just completed copying TKD into my own dictionary of sorts.
It's Klingon-English broken down into mainly 2 sections Nouns and Verbs.
I've put the proper verb prefixes and suffixes tables in the proper
section and done the same with the noun suffixes and pronouns for quick
refrence. I've also done up a Quick Reference of words I see used most
often in the irc chat so I can learn them faster.
Next part will be copying KGT into the appropriate sections ,then the
new words from KLI site. I've come across more words that I didn't know
had been translated by doing this. It's a great way to really *read* the
books.
Lt.Commander Maud Freifelder /Lt.Commander malqa
Chief Security Officer /Chief of Cadet Corps.
USS Triumph NCC-26228/R2/ Starfleet (Triumph Against All Odds)
