majQa' (Well Done!) J.J.Abrams



Get the shirt!

Klingons are a warrior race from the planet Q'onoS (Kronos) and have a genetic predisposition to hostility. Needless to say, they have anger issues. "The culture's warrior ethic runs so deep that rivals in the civil war can meet and drink as equal fighters for periods of time before or after battles, thanks to the Capitol City's neutrality. During these get-togethers, a great deal of growling, wrestling, snarling and generally loud revelry takes place, Klingons seeming to derive tremendous satisfaction from drinking with their enemies on the night before a battle."
I have selected a few choice phrases from the Klingon language that everyone should learn. And I mean everyone! Enjoy!
Language Lessons:

Hab SoSlI' Quch!
(Your mother has a smooth forehead!)
This is a very strong insult in the Klingon world!

Heghlu'meH QaQ jajvam
(Today is a good day to die.)
In a culture of warriors,
this phrase will come in very handy.

buy' ngop
(That's great news!)
Memorize this phrase as it will
no doubt come in handy someday.

tlhIngan maH!
(We are Klingons!)
Enough Said.
