Oh yes, and those subtitles can be the complete opposite sometimes,
without being wrong for the story.
I noticed something similar to this lately while watching Star Trek with
subtitles. It wasn't a Klingon scene, but I'll use it for my example:
- "Would you mind helping me?" {choboQqang'a'?}
- "No." {HIja'}
See the problem?
