The screen said {Dujvetlh 'oH nuq} - so odd grammar, correct pronunciation.
I think you’re mistaking spelling for pronunciation. In the Morskan dialect, trailing {tlh} sounds like “ts”, and trailing {H} is essentially dropped. If you were to ask a Morskan how to translate “it” he’d say something that sounds like {'o}, but he would write it the same way a First City native would write {'oH}. The universal translator display apparently recognized the dialect and spelled it appropriately (though it did label the top panel “phonetic” Klingon instead of calling it “transcribed”). — ghunchu'wI'
