"Star Trek VI as canonical" wIlajba'chugh....
<<taH pagh taHbe'>> jatlh Hamlet. "To be or not to be" mugh Dochvam 'e'

To the Beginning Grammarian: Does that even vaguely resemble anything which
makes sense? I was trying to say:
"If we accept Star Trek VI as canon....
Hamlet says <<taH pagh taHbe'>>. The Federation's thieves say that this
translates as "To be or not to be". Therefore, <<taH>> translates as "to
exist"."
