hmm.. this raised another question. If Okrand did not intend Klingon to be
a written language,has he ever said which pIqaD he considers canon ? As i
understand there are at least two versions/types of pIqaD,and i think i
read somewhere,that noone knows the creator of pIqaD. Has Okrand ever
commented on any of these ?
