Of course. Just like the typo in the title {tlhI ngan toQDuj}. Okrand
supplied the publisher with the text, but he has no control over the
(mis)printing.
{'ay'mey tetlh} "parts list" is obviously a loose translation for
"technical callouts" (which phrase, BTW, I've never heard before). No new
vocabulary or grammar is needed. Besides, no Klingon word begins with a vowel.
