Regardless whether you're translating your thoughts in klingon, or any kind of text, sooner or later you'll find yourself stuck at a word, you just can't find a way to express. When that happens, usually two things do the trick : 1. Take a break, close your eyes and try to *feel* that word. Almost always, when you *feel* that word, a way will appear in order to put it in klingon too. It took me a long time, to realize that "we express meanings in klingon" ; we don't just convert other languages' words in klingon words. 2. Find a thesaurus page on google, and search on that site for synonyms. 3. Most important : Even if klingon has a word, which translates exactly your foreign word into it, ask yourself : Even if you do use that word, is the outcome just as cool in klingon as it is in your mind's original sentence ? A while ago, I wanted to find a way to express in klingon : "you're the thorn at Light's side" ; of course, there is no klingon word for "thorn'. So, following steps 1 and 2, I found the solution : {wovlI'ghach joQmeyvaD wIl SoHtaH}. And it passes the test of the third point too.. mop Hurgh qunnoq
