KLBC: How would you say.... ....in Klingon?

I've added KLBC to the subject so the Beginners' Grammarian
will jump in here.  Meanwhile, I'll take a crack at your phrases:

> Meet me at $ at #### hours.
I'm not sure we know how to tell time in Klingon yet, but I'm not up
on the latest discoveries.  But just "Meet me at $" would be "$Daq HIghom".

> I have got to go.
jIjaHnIS.

> Please!
> Thank you!
> You're welcome.
Klingons aren't big on social niceties, and would generally leave all such
phrases out of their conversation.  However, we do know how to say
"I thank you", if you insist: you can say "qatlho'" (to a single person) or
"Satlho'" (to many people).

> Can you come over to my place at #### hours?
(at #### hours) juHwIjDaq  bIpawlaH'a'?

> May I come over to your place at #### hours?
(at #### hours) juHlIjDaq  jIpawlaH'a'?
