Interesting.
I just listened to it and it sounded like {DaHjaj mojaq...} and I couldn't hear the next word because he was interrupted. Not that {mojaq} makes any sense here. Yep. It's a Klingon word, pronounced admirably well, but it had nothing to do with the ceremony.
Perhaps I misheard, and it was one of the stock phrases. Canon master: Anything starting with {DaHjaj} that this could have been?
