hmm.. I see.. So, let me rephrase the question:<br>
<br>
Are there sentences written by 'oqranD, which sentences weren't written for actors, and which sentences utilize arabic numerals ?<br>
</blockquote>
<br>
I don't remember any phrase using arabic letters, I'll leave that to the canon experts.<br>
<br>
But again: All the Klingon we know is only a transcrption of a SPOKEN language. Alle the Klingon was basically written for actors, or for anyone who wants to speak it. There is no rule or proof for using numbers or not use them. using numbers would just be a lazy way to abbreviate numbers.<br>
<br>
You cannot speak "1", do you?<br>
