Doch tlha' jatlhta' nichyon (Nick Nicholas):
: luQaw'pu' so'wi' jorwi'chaj: "They were blown up by their own landmine
: [lit: cloaked explosive]". Juxtapose this against the original "petard",
: and you think you won't get a chuckle? I think you will!
ghobe'...Dip 'oH \So'wi'\. wot DaneHchugh, \So'\ Dalo'niSbej, vaj \luQaw'pu'
jorwi'chaj So'lu'\ 'oHniSba' mu'tlheghlij. 'ach viparHa'qu'!

BTW, more slang...this time a Terran complaining of a Klingon he's on work
detail with: "I tried to klob [tlhob] a klidge [tlhij] out of him, but he
copped it [qap] that it was my pitch [pich], made *me* say a hivker [Hivqa',
sc. veqlargh] to the pin [pin], and, at hitch-point [Hich], forced me to ip
['ip] on my bottle [batlh] that I'd never do it again! I tell you, I'm gonna
hoke [HoH] that tax [petaQ] next time I so much as leg [legh] his moky [moH]
cob!
