[Tlhingan-hol] words for the letters

[Michael Roney, Jr.]

This is the message that was first sent to the list:

There are names for the individual sounds of spoken Klingon.
These are not really the letters of an alphabet [though with the
phonetic transcription we use, the distinction is very fine].  They
follow a very simple pattern:  consonants' names consist of the sound
followed by {ay}, and vowels' names consist of the sound preceded by
{'} and followed by {t}.  The glottal stop sound is an exception,
being called {qaghwI'}, though this longish name is often eschewed in
favor of a simple grunt of the sound itself.
