WM: Amy West believes that the fourth line during the introduction to
WM: Conversational Klingon is actually two lines. A female voice curses
WM: {Qu'vatlh}, then a male voice adds {vaj maHegh}. She is quite certain that
WM: this is the case.
WM: The only line I heard from a female voice was the earlier {lughoS chaH
}.
WM: Could someone else listen to that introduction yet again and offer any
WM: new suggestions? I would really appreciate it. I'm only a few synapses shor
t
WM: of looking up Okrand in the DC directory...
I'll go back and listen again, but I remember it as:
Qu'vatlh!
vaj bIHegh!
which seems to make some sort of sense... I was under the impression (though
I have nothing to back this up) that it was a sound clip from one of the
films... Am I wrong?
