Re: [tlhIngan Hol] Remain klingon

      As soon as I sent the reply, I noticed that it was marked as spam in the
subject (?!?!).

Anyways, in case it didn't get through, here it is again..

maj. I didn't know that.

However, again I would choose something like:

{tlhIngan maH, 'ej not machoH}
{tlhIngan maH, 'ej machoHQo'}
{tlhIngan maH, 'ej paghlogh machoH}
{tlhIngan maH, 'ej Hochlogh machoHQo'}

Perhaps, I would shove an {-'egh} on the {choH}, but this would depend on
the scene where this phrase was said, and to whom it was directed. But
since I have no idea with regards to the story of dsc, I can't decide on
that..

Or, I would keep the taH, but without the {-jaj}:

{tlhIngan maH 'ej mataH}
{tlhIngan maH 'ej mataHbej}
{tlhIngan maH 'ej reH mataH}
{tlhIngan maH 'ej Hochlogh mataH}

Or

{tlhIngan maH 'ej mataHbe'Qo'}
{tlhIngan maH 'ej reH mataHbe'Qo'}
{tlhIngan maH 'ej Hochlogh mataHbe'Qo'}

Before going into detail of the philosophy of this phrase and usage of
{-jaj}, there is something else important to notice:
{ratlh} means "remain, stay" in the sense of being at a place. You can
tell a dog "stay". You can tell your kids to "stay at school".
The verb in "Remain Klingon" means something like "continuously-be",
which is something else.
