[KLBC] taghwI' qaD: lIHchu'meH



In the past, the list has had beginner's challenges for beginners (and
everyone else). These are good for getting some excercise in using the
language. To encourage you to use the language, and so that I can start to
keep track of people (since I have a hard time remembering names), I present
a beginner's challenge:

Introduce yourself. You can describe yourself. Maybe you want to tell how
you found out about the Klingon language. Or why you like the language. You
don't need to write a lot. Use as much of the language as you feel
comfortable with, but challenge yourself too - use some new vocabulary,
grammar, or maybe an idiom from KGT that you haven't used much. Be creative!

I'll start:
<taD> 'oH pongwIj'e'. <Pennsylvania> vIDab.
DuSaQ'a'Daq De' QeD vIHaD, jIlumbe'taHvIS.
jIDIj 'e' vItIv. qen <Russian> Hol vIghojchoH je.
'op ben tlhIngan Hol vItu'. ngugh <Hov leng> vItIvmo', tlhIngan Hol mu'ghom
vIje'. 'a Hol vIyajbe'.
qaSpu'DI' 'op DIS, <HolQeD> vItu' 'ej vIje'. <Postal Course> vISuq, 'ej
naDev jISaHchoH.

If you're a non-beginner, you can still respond to this challenge; just
remember to remove the [KLBC] from the subject line if you don't want me to
comment on your grammar.
