You can say {qeqtaHghach} "continuous training." Or you can say {=

<br>
But {-ghach} usually shouldn't be your first choice; there's often =

IS} "I need to train."<br>
<br>
Klingon uses verbs more centrally than English does. Where English uses wea=
k or auxiliary verbs with strong nouns, Klingon often uses just verbs. See =
