[Tlhingan-hol] Invitation Translation

Michael Roney, Jr. PKT asks :

We have a full Terran date from the Star Trek: The Experience communique:

  tera' poH jaj wa', jar wa', jaj loSDIch, DIS wa'-Hut-Hut-chorgh: HovpoHvetlh latlh nab yIHutlh 
  Save this Stardate: Sunday, January 4, 1998. 

I would have just used the numerals "1998" in the text.  { wa'-Hut-Hut-chorgh} is presumably how the date is read out loud.

I know that times of day are mentioned in the TalkNow: Klingon, e.g.

  five o'clock p.m. (17:00) 
  wa'maH Sochvatlh rep

but are dates and days of the week discussed there?
