Well,the canonical source for pronunciation (not counting the written
descriptions) is the two tapes put out by Okrand: _Conversational Klingon_
and _Power Klingon_ (sorry, I don't have the ISBN's now), published by
Simon and Schuster. Other than that, the best we can do is supply more
words and descriptions, or else upload sound-files to the ftp server, if
you have the right kind of machine (I have a .AU file of Okrand saying
"Qu'vatlh" around here...)
