I just received this book in the mail today (and just in time, too --
I'm going to see STID tonight).
There are, in fact, two Klingon words I have not seen written in
tlhIngan Hol canon (in Okrandian transcription) before. It's true that
they are not "new" words, in that we've heard them onscreen before,
but we hadn't seen them written. However, since the publication date
is Apr. 23, I'll wait the 30 days before discussing them.
To relate them back to this thread, since these spellings have now
appeared in a Paramount-licensed Star Trek product, do we consider
them "official"? They're as good as anything that's appeared in a book
by K.R.A. DeCandido, for example. I doubt MO will ever use those
specific words in writing, but if he does, he will almost certainly
just confirm their spelling, since they follow good tlhIngan Hol
orthography and phonetics.
