The dialog lifted from “Conversational Klingon” should be played one phrase per measure in the interlude between the second refrain and the final verse, timed with the bass drum beats. It would ideally be the original audio from the audiobook, heavily distorted to make it sound like its being spoken through a pipe, but if the pacing of the original audio isn’t suitable, or if there’s some other reason it doesn’t sound good, then it can be replaced with a new performance, with suitable audio distortion. The text interleaved into the lines of the final verse should be performed with a distortion similar to the text in the interlude. It takes the place of the “echo” in the last verse of the Terran version of the song. Rather than repeating the refrain ad infinitum and fading out, as with the Terran version, this song should have a definitive end, either with an abrupt cutoff, or an orchestra hit or something. The bit about an 'o'megh can be recited either after the music has finished, or while the instrumental track continues without vocals, to be followed by the end of the music. Or that part can be ignored, and the song can fade out with an 'o'meghqoq just like the Terran version.

Expressing "middle ages".
by mayqel qunen'oS 28 Jun '19

28 Jun '19

(continuing from another thread) ghunchu'wI' > Consider using {bov} “era” for this > meaning of "ages". Sometime in the past, I'd toyed with "how to express middle ages". After googling "middle ages", to find out *when* the middle ages actually was, I came up with "time period between 476 c.e. and 1453 c.e.". So, I thought of saying something like: {qaSchoH tera' DIS loS-Soch-jav, ngugh qaSchoH bov potlh, 'ej qaSchoHDI' tera' DIS wa'-loS-vagh-wej, Dor bovvam potlh} or {qaSchoHDI' tera' DIS loS-Soch-jav, qaSchoH bov potlh, 'ej qaSchoHDI' tera' DIS wa'-loS-vagh-wej, Dor bovvam potlh} And from that point on, resuming the passage by referring to the middle ages as {bov potlh} or {bov qab}, or by any other adjective I'd used in the original description. But in the end, I didn't know, if after all these {qaSchoH}, {qaSchoHDI'}, and {Dor}, the meaning would have indeed become clear to the reader. Of course, if anyone has any ideas on the matter, then, qeylIS knows, I'd like to read them.. ~ khkhhk
