I'm aware of KAG and have many times heard those titles; but I am not familiar
with how they are used. I never got into that side of fandom.

You didn't notice my extended signature on that e-mail did you?

Correct.
So, for you:
vIghro' joH, bomwI' tuq.

I tried that with one of the groups I associate with. They were rewriting
their books. I wrote up a formal report on the information in KGT. They liked
it; said they would incorporate some of it, if not all of it. But when the
Fleet Manual came out they didn't use any of the information.
So I do what you are planning to do; I stick with proper tlhIngan Hol. I
haven't a clue what they have listed for me in their records.
