[Tlhingan-hol] qo''e' tu'bogh pagh - 'ay' jav

[De'vID jonpIn]

In this scene (actually a sceneHom followed by a proper scene), Kirk & co.
board the Enterprise.

There's a lot of piloting lingo in this scene, which I'm not completely
sure about the meaning of.  Qov (and anyone else who may know the argot),
can you help?

Also, are people okay with me putting all the Klingon in one chunk,
followed by the English later, as I've been doing, or should I interlinear
them?

[SceneHom: Approaching the ship.]

lupDujHom: SeHyaH[1], SD-1-0-3 'oH Dujvam'e', logh vergh chol.
logh vergh: SD-1-0-3, NCC-1701-A-vaD *qIrq* HoD ghomDaj je DaHIj net
chaw'.  rIn.

[1] - I have {yo'SeH yaHnIv} listed as "Operations Command" with the source
noted as HQ 8.4.  However, I also have {HoD, yo' SeHyaH nIvvo' potlh De'
wIHevtaH} as the sentence in which it occurs, in which the word is broken
up as {yo' SeHyaH nIv} (which makes more sense to me).  Does anyone have HQ
8.4 so they can verify if one or the other form is a typo?

> SHUTTLECRAFT VOICE: Control, this is SD one zero three approaching
Spacedock.
> SPACEDOCK VOICE: SD one zero three, you are clear to deliver Captain
> Kirk and party to NCC one seven zero one alpha. Over.

[Scene: Aboard the ship.]

VALERIS: meHDaq paw HoD.

SCOTT (ghogh): lu', qaH.
KIRK: jonta' pa' DaSam'a'?

UHURU: HevtaH SeHyaH, qaH.

VALERIS: lu', qaH.

[2] - Again with the backward order from English so I can't cut off in the
right place.  Is this a proper use of {'Iv}?  Or should this be {Sogh 'Iv?}
(a pun on {SoH 'Iv})?
[3] - I'm pretty sure this sentence is grammatically wrong somehow.
        {vIlanpu'} "I put it (completed)"
        {DaqDaq vIlanpu'} "I put it at that location"
        {DaqDaq vIlanpu'bogh} "the location where I put it"
        {DaqDaq vIlanpu'boghDaq} "at the location where I put it"
        I'm not completely sure of that last step here.  When you have a
noun in a relative clause, where does the {-Daq} go?  I thought it might be
{DaqDaqDaq vIlanpu'bogh} but that definitely looks wrongs to me.
[4] - prefix trick for {jIHvaD yIrI'}.
[5] - In English, we say "This is (the name of a ship, the dock, etc.)".
Can we say {SeHyaH 'oH} in Klingon?  That sounds to me like "it (something
else) is Control (Station)".  Also, I'm not sure what "thirty seconds for
port gates" means.  Does it mean they estimate thirty seconds?  They're
permitted thirty seconds?  Anyone know the ship/piloting lingo?  (Qov?)
[6] - I don't know whether Valeris is saying a command (to the ship? to
engineering?) or making a statement.  I think the latter.  I also don't
know what kind of "moorings" are in spacedock.  (It's not like they tie the
ship up with ropes.)
[7] - I think on a Klingon ship, questioning the captain's orders in this
way would result in instant combat if not outright death.  I put {-neS}
here to soften the challenge, and also to reflect that she said "May I
remind..." rather than "I remind...".

> VALERIS: Captain on the bridge.
> KIRK: As you were. ...Lieutenant?
> VALERIS: Valeris, sir. We were told that you needed a helmsman so I
volunteered.
> SPOCK: Lieutenant, It is agreeable to see you again. The Lieutenant
> was the first Vulcan to be graduated at the top of the class at the
> Academy.
> KIRK: You must be very proud.
> VALERIS: I don't believe so, sir.
> McCOY: She's a Vulcan all right.
> KIRK: Let's get this over with. Departure stations. ...Scotty?
> SCOTT (OC): Aye sir?
> KIRK: Did you find the engine room?
> SCOTT (OC): Right where I left it, sir.
> KIRK: Standby. Uhura, get me the dock master.
> UHURA: Control tower, reading, sir.
> KIRK: Control, this is Enterprise ...requesting permission to depart.
> SPACEDOCK VOICE: This is control. Enterprise, Permission to depart
> granted. ...Thirty seconds for port gates.
> VALERIS: Clear all moorings.
> KIRK: Awaiting port gates from this mark.
> SPACEDOCK VOICE: All lines cleared.
> VALERIS: Aft thrusters.
> KIRK: Thank you. Lieutenant, one-quarter impulse power.
> VALERIS: Captain, may I remind you that regulations specify thrusters
> only while in Spacedock?
> SPOCK: Hm. Hm.
> McCOY (OC): Jim?
> KIRK: You heard the order, Lieutenant.
> VALERIS: Aye sir.
