How long have you been studying it?
Many beginners, because they don't realize that it is indeed A LANGUAGE, think
they can learn this so-called code in a couple months.
When one learns a language in highschool or college, how many YEARS is the
language offered.
When I was about three years into it, I picked up one of the jatmey, read it,
and then realized that I just read it without looking up any words. Sure I
knew that my reading e-mail was improving over time, but this made a nice
milestone.
At my first qep'a', on the first night I was wondering what I got myself into
and why did I go there. I could not keep up with the mighty Qov at all. But
by the end of the qep'a' when we went out to eat, I found myself speaking only
klingon, nothing great mind you, but I did do it.
I don't recognize your name. How long have you been with this list? A great
way to learn is to practice. Write to this list.
Attend qep'a' this summer!

If we can find a way for you to prove that you own it, for copyright reasons,
then maybe we can get you a text version of the tape.
