Why do you transliterate Marc Okrand as *maq 'oQaD*?  Do rules of
tlhIngan-Hol phonology rule out *marq 'oQranD*, or do you actually not
pronounce the r's and the n?  And why the distinction between q and Q?

TKD doesn't give much (any?) information about allowable sound-sequences. 
Has any been gleaned from a linguistic study of the corpus?
