"...the tongue reaches for or touches the uvula (the fleshy blob that
dangles down from the back of the roof of the mouth), so articulating q
approximates the sound of choking." (TKD 1.1)
"... It (Q) is an overdone Klingon q. It is identical to q except that it is
very guttural and raspy and strongly articulated, somewhat like a blend of
Klingon q and H." (TKD 1.1)
'ach *uvula* mughmeH mu' tu'be'lu'chugh, qay'be'bej je.
