Oooh... now I'm curious. An exam for what and why? If there's a course
on Klingonology (or xenoanthropology, specialist in Klingon) I'd be
interested in taking it.
To take a complete stab in the dark, since as everyone has pointed
out no one really knows the origin of the word, if I absolute had to
guess (in a test situation) I would say <matlh 'etlh> "sword of
loyalty" based (very very very loosely) on KGT p 60. That'll
probably fool your examiner, unless your examiner is Marc Okrand.
