[tlhIngan Hol] Klingon Word of the Day: butnat

[Will Martin]

Of course, that is the version of the word preferred by British Klingons. The American Klingons tended to say *tIranqe’nat*, but Klingons from Qo’noS found {butnat} quicker and easier to pronounce, so that has come to be the preferred version for the Emperor’s Klingon.
