Klingon Hamlet, post 1

gifted to me by my very dear friend @section-69, this is an honest to god klingon translation of the entire text of hamlet that i'm planning to read and post about over the next while despite my middling at best grasp of the klingon language. particularly love the portrait of the "author" and the tangible love and dedication with which the whole thing was made.

My manager at work loves that I’m trying to learn klingon, and has said that if I know how to do closing announcements in klingon he would let me do it. How would I say the store is closing in x minutes or that the store is closed?

qaSDI' X tup ngevwI'vam SoQmoHlu' This store closes in X minutes qaSDI' wa' rep ngevwI'vam SoQmoHlu' This store closes in one hour qaSDI' rep bID ngevwI'vam SoQmoHlu' This store closes in half an hour qaSDI' wa'maH tup ngevwI'vam SoQmoHlu' This store closes in ten minutes tugh ngevwI'vam SoQmoHlu' This store is closing soon DaH ngevwI'vam SoQchoHlu' This store is closing now DaH ngevwI'vam SoQlu' This store is now closed SuratlhtaHchugh yotwI'pu' bomoj if you remain, you will all be intruders DaH ngevwI'vo' yImej Leave the store!

There is an old Klingon proverb - roughly translated, it means "Many are the good consequences had by ocean life scientists."

i think it's really funny that there is no letter k in the Klingon language

there are, however, two qs and a tlh.

reading shakespeare to get a better understanding of klingon culture and came across this little coincidence (or not?) in antony and cleopatra that made me smile :)

Do you think there are secular Klingons who see the whole warrior race schtick as fundy extremist bullshit? Like, holy shit dude, calm the fuck down, you can't plunder and pillage your way into space faring technology.

Freshly translated extract of vIraSngan IQ' (Sad French People)!

I'm so happy that this extract is done!!! I hope the translation is good :0

I had a hard time with some of the words, and I had to get a bit creative with the line "Look down" (and anything referencing looking somewhere), because I couldn't find a word in Klingon for to look, or to make eye contact with something/someone (on second thought, it might be the same word as to see, but it's done now so-)

Fun fact: Javert's Klingon name (or the Klingon transliteration of his name) is actually a double pun! "jav" means six in Klingon, which appears in Valjean's prisoner number 24601, and it is also a Klingon slang word meaning prisoner! (A bit ironic considering that Javert hates prisoners/criminals in general...)

Thank you so much @daily-klingon for your help, I couldn't have done it without you!

Also thank you to @psalm22-6 and @walrudel for the support :0

The fact that you can actually learn Klingon is still one of the funniest things I’ve ever encountered.

There’s absolutely a Klingon out there who lost an eye to a feral cat that he then adopted.

So here's the thing about Klingon.

The phrase "I love you" translates thus:

qamuSHa' (ka-moosh-hah)

Now Okrand tlhIngan Hol is one of those languages that uses agglutination for everything, meaning that the qa- prefix is the "I-you" part. But -Ha' as a suffix roughly translates to an emphatic opposite, and muS, the base verb in the sentence, means "to hate". So put together, if you want to tell a klingon you love them, you are literally telling them "I have feelings for you that are the emphatic opposite of hatred".

If that ain't the most klingon thing I've ever heard of, I dunno what is.
