completely wrong?

With actions, slow repetitions and pauses for dictionary lookups, a qepHom 
can be conducted almost entirely in Klingon.

My husband called during the proceedings and that conversation went like this:

jIH: nuqneH!

ghaH: I'll be home in five minutes.

jIH: DaHjaj qaS qepHom.

ghaH: Oh I forgot that was tonight.

jIH: naDev wej tlhIngan Hol jatlhwI' lutu'lu'.

ghaH: That's okay.  I have an umbrella to beat them off with.
