That is correct. I have been trying to translate your email for a while, but my translations seem far off the mark. I have been using a dictionary to try and translate and send emails in Klingon that are very likely grammatically incorrect. Your translation of the speech is greatly needed and would be appreciated.

Your inability to speak Klingon is a problem here. Your words seem
clear (except for the misspelled {nuqneH}, but your sentences make no
sense. If you want us to translate for you, you'll have to translate
for us first. :)
If I pretend that I don't epeak Klingon either, I might be able to
tease out some meaning from the first couple of sentences: "Send me
speech translate. Warfare English see translate correct." I'll
assume you looked up "want" in the dictionary and missed the target,
getting "war" instead. What you probably mean is "Translate the
speech for me. I want to see a proper English translation." Is that
right?
