>From klingonska.org's transcript:

---------------------

For instance {Dal} means <It is boring>. To get the first sound in that
word right, make sure your tongue is pointed straight up towards the roof
of your mouth.

If you wanted to say <It's undoubtedly boring.> you would say:
   {Dalbej.}
   {Dalbej.}
   {...}

I also checked PK; it's correct.

If you don't have it, you can still listen to it at qurgh's website: http://hol.kag.org
Click on "Media" in the top bar, then <tlhIngan Hol wab>, then "MO - Power Klingon", then "02 Qualifying suffixes".

I have a memory of hearing this on one of the tapes; anyone have a
confirmed source?
