Remember the Klingon dialogue between Uhura and the Klingon from Star Trek Into Darkness? Do you also remember that the final cut was pieced together and retranslated and re-subtitled? On YouTube you can still watch the original cut (with wrong subtitles though):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s9AFnBkIRwoThe Klingon Wiki has the dialogue and explanations about this scene:
http://www.klingonwiki.net/En/ST12A few of those lines were still unclear. For my Klingon course that I will teach in September and November this year (in Switzerland), I was preparing a discussion and translation task about these dialogues, and I think I understood one of the lines that have a (?) behind it.
The Wiki has: {jIHvo' neH De' jIbup (?).} = "from me want data ..."
This doesn't make much sense. I listened to the dialogue again and I think what's being said is:
{jIHvo' nIHDI' jIbup.} = "When he stole from me, I quit."
This makes a lot of sense in the whole dialogue. I think I will correct the dialogue in the Klingon Wiki.
Any idea about the other sentence?
{tlhInganna' naQpu'a' SoH?} = "You are a definite klingon. (?)"
I do think the dialogue is in correct Klingon, but perhaps it's something quite different, though I don't get the verb in the middle, a suggestion:
{tlhIngan Da-???-pu''a' SoH?} = "Did you [naq?] a Klingon / the Klingon(s)?"
The syllable in the middle sounds like naq or naQ, but I can't figure it out.
Also, is the second line plausible?
{mughojmoH parmaqqaywI'.} = "My romantic partner has taught me."
Maybe this is referring to the Klingons' surprise upon her speaking Klingon, but the sentence seems a bit out of context. Could the verb be something different here? Maybe the romantic partner has betrayed, wronged, abandoned, stolen from, ... her – but none of the verbs fit.
Apologies if this has all long been figured out years ago after the movie; maybe the Klingon Wiki page isn't up-to-date. I'd like to present a complete dialogue to my (future) students.
