An Klingon to English translater/parser program that I wrote in Visual C++. OK, it sometimes produces veQ, but better than it missing genuine translations. Sorry.

The site "Voragh's Notes on Klingon Cursing" also notes that yIntagh is an expletive and also means "life-support system".

Yes, epithets are names, and names are treated as nouns.
