Someone found a Klingon translator website, perhaps?

Re: OT- tlhingan Hol jatlh
 
To my knowledge there are no such sites. No, I use my own knowledge, although granted I do need to check some things in my textbooks.

Edit: why is it everytime I use Klingon people assume I found a translation site?

Edit2: At the time I was feeling mischevous, but I suppose I should say I'm not trying to show off. It's both a joke (not a knock knock type joke) as well as a statement related to the subject.

Well this joke went nowhere. Fair enough. I guess I should translate.

"I admit Klingon is a minor language. Why is German spoken here but Klingon isn't. Klingon is just as important as other so called languages"

well the answer is clear. I'm the only one who knows it (or at least has the resources to write it) http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Edit: it's not a case of showing off. Someone started a thread in german. Now only someone who knows german could understand him. The joke is only someone who understands klingon understands this.

I think I should learn Klingon. My English stinks.

For the PC I have had some discs for years that I haven't looked at much. They are all 'Star Trek, The Next Generation' and were together in a pack:

"Klingon Language Disc"
"Interactive Technical Manual"
"Episode Guide"
"Omnipedia"

Are these very rare and of value to anyone?
As I remember, I found them to be quite interesting and entertaining but I'm more of a gamer so did not use them much. I don't recall every thing on the Klingon Language Disc. The Episode Guide has actuall clips of the episodes and lots of other stuff. One of the other two lets you wander through the Enterprise and explore First Person perspective.

I might just install these again and check them out more.
