<div>Anyway, back to the original question.. Since the word
"panatheneans" is plural, what should I write?</div>
<div><br>

<div>yupma'vaD panatheneans ponglu'</div>

<p><i>Panatheneans,</i> being plural, should be treated as plural
when used as a foreign word in Klingon. <b>yupma'vaD panatheneans
ponglu'.</b><br>
