[tlhIngan Hol] Property of the Klingon Empire

[Steven Boozer]

Since it's licensed merchandise --  "TM & © 2018 CBS Studios Inc. All Rights Reserved" -- I wonder if other shirts were released at the same time.  (It would be odd if they made only one for the Klingon Empire.)  If so, whatever phrases they translated by {ngItlh 47} and {ngISwI'} might be printed on other shirts in the series.  

Perhaps someone with more time than I have could do some research and report back to the collective?

Some time today, Felix Malmenbeck aka loghaD mentioned a Klingon T-shirt on Facebook. It contains some Klingon words written in Discovery pIqaD, whose meaning we do not know. At this point it is not clear whether these are typos or really unknown/new words. What wonders me most is that one of the words uses a known suffix, so maybe it's not just a random thing.

On top of the shirt, it says {ngItlh 47} - whatever that may mean. Maybe it's just English with Klingon letters, so that might be "fix 47"?

The other word is {ngISwI'}. Looks Klingon, but is not. It's combined with the letter 12.

Oh, and there is one phrase that causes no trouble and is actually translated pretty well: "Property of the Klingon Empire" is correctly translated as {tlhIngan wo' luch} "equipment of the Klingon Empire".
This phrase also appeared (with the same design) on the packing of Eaglemoss' Bird of Prey.

You can see images of both on the Klingon Wiki:
