Antti-Juhani Kaijanaho: Debya' leHwI' jIH

I've been a Star Trek fan for a long time, and I have been fascinated with Klingons (especially as portrayed in the movies and afterward) and especially their language. I have known for a long time that there is a real (constructed) Klingon language. I've even known a student of the Klingon language for a few years now, but it only recently came to me: I'll start studying it for real. So I bought Marc Okrand's books The Klingon Dictionary and Klingon for the Galactic Traveler and have been studying them since early this week. I already am able to construct simple sentences, and if I look up every word, I am able to understand written Klingon (the Okrand kind of writing, not the funny symbols).

The sentence in the title means "I am a Debian maintainer". The word Debya' is not canon, but it'll have to do.

I make no warranties that my tlhIngan Hol (Klingon language) is correct, though :)
