Works
by Dickens you mean the Klingon Christmas Carol ?  And what are the
original works ?   Actually i have bought every Klingon book i have
found,and indeed i intend -as soon as i learn the basics- to go through
them ; but the problem is that because of the structure of Klingon
(prefixes-word-suffixes) glued together, when one tries to read from a book
and translate as he goes along,a great deal of time is required. So that is
exactly where the grammar books i spoke of would come in handy. You would
have to concern yourself with small groups of sentences at a time (of the
same level),which would help you learn better (or adapt better as our Borg
friends would say..)
