There is no grammatical subjunctive mood in Klingon.
I say that, but actually there is: *-jaj* forms a subjunctive mood.*bInajtaHvIS qeylIS Daghomjaj*/May you encounter Kahless in your dreams./ The encounter is strictly a wish, not something that actually happens, so it is an irrealis, and since this is indicated morphologically, it's pretty much a subjunctive mood. There are also arguments to be made that certain other suffixes, like *-nIS*, also form subjunctive moods. -- SuStel http://trimboli.name
