[Tlhingan-hol] Klingon spoken in latest Big Bang Theory?

[Steven Boozer]

Are you sure the second word began with {mo-}?  Both {m} and {p} are labials and can often be mistaken for one another - also {b} for that matter.  The only phrases the writers might have looked up I can think of are {DaHjaj po} "this morning" or {DaHjaj pov} this afternoon".  (What time of day was Wolowitz's wedding?)

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?

I was able to hear something like DaHjaj "mopa" 'oH, DaHja..... There's probably a letter missing between "mo" and "pa" but it was too laud for me to understand what's there. It definitely isn't mopwI' as there's a clear "a" at the end of that word.

I was also surprised that Klingon version started with DaHjaj while english equivalent didn't even contain "today" word.
