Klingon word: tlhIngan 'IH qaD
Part of speech: noun
Definition: Klingon beauty contest
Source: Klingon Monopoly, published 1 November 2011

This is the "contest of the handsome Klingon", and not the "klingon handsomeness contest". {'IH} is not used as a noun.

But it's an appropriate translation, because, as we all know, Klingon is not a code for English, and translations are not word-for-word affairs. The correct English expression for what tlhIngan 'IH qaD describes is Klingon beauty contest.
