Because in Klingon, no word starts with a vowel. Even from a linguistic 
view, in most languages, words woth vowels start with a glottal stop. 
Try saying "I ate eight egg" without the stop. I will sound like 
"hi-yate-tate-hags".

That was just a typo in the first message. Ignore it, there is no "d".
