chut 'oHbej'a'?
I could have done it either way, but as a stylistic choice I wrote it
with {vatlh} being a separate word. I thought it seemed to evoke the
spirit of the formal "3:30 o'clock p.m." phrasing that one often finds
on such invitations.

The way I did it is modeled after the "Star Trek: The Experience"
example. But we do have a comment from Maltz letting us know that it's
not *the* way to do it in Klingon, just *a* way.
