Also from Klingon Monopoly:

{pIraqSIS=A0HoS=A0waw' ghajlu'chugh, loSlogh boq'egh mI' naghmey mI'; chen =
qav'ap.}
"If Praxis Energy Facility is owned, rent is 4 times amount shown on dice."

mI' naghvaD {ronmoH} lo'bej tlhIngan Monopoly Quj.

Klingon Monopoly confirms {mI' naghmey tIronmoH} for "throw (or roll)
dice".  It's used in the following sentence:

{HoSHal ghajchugh vay', mI' naghmey tIronmoH.  wa'maHlogh boq'egh mI'
naghmey; chen qav'ap.  ghajwI'vaD qav'ap yIDIl.}
"If [energy source is] owned, throw dice and pay owner a total ten
times amount shown."

(The "[energy source is]" part isn't on the card, but it's implied by
context as it follows instructions to the player to move to the energy
source.)
