ja'chuqghach 'oH. muDaj, jIyaDHa'.
SKI: It's a discussion. It interests me - honestly.

nuQHa' 'oH? chay'? ra'wI'mey vIngu'laHbe'chugh, lI'Ha' neH.
SKI: Not intrusive(annoying)? How? If I cannot identify the commands,
they are merely useless.

-WIKI-lIj 'oHbej. vaj, SaghItlh.
SKI: It is your WIKI, obviously. Thus I write to you.
>The thinking probably is that punctuation

qatlh buSHa'lu'? mu'tlheghmeyvaD 'ay'. qar'a'? vaj, laDmeHlu' napnIS
'oH.
SKI: Why ignore it? It is a part of the text, right? Thus, to read it,
it should be simple.
>There is room for disagreement on
>that point, but the place for discussing such disagreement isn't here.
vaj, nuqDaq 'oH Daq?
SKI: Then where is a place for that?
tetlh ra'wI'mey vIlobmeH, tlhIngan jIghItlhtaH. 'e' muqeq. jIqeqnISba'.
SKI: To follow the list rules, I will write on in klingon. That trains
me. I need to practice, obviously. (anyway)
