Finally

[edit]

Hi article initiator,

it's great to see this article has finally gotten here. It is very well done and has all references neeeded (except for very few typos ;-). I have really been wondering why this article did not exist before for sucha along time! I've added quality and importance scale, I hope I didn't break any rules with that? Just correct if necessary. -- Lieven (talk) 19:36, 28 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Too many example sentences?

[edit]

Are there too many example sentances? Or do they need to be reorganized? I want to show how each element works, but I might be making the article bulky. Comment? reH ghun ghunwI' 03:29, 3 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Most examples appear to illustrate what was said clearly and without really cluttering the page. --JorisvS (talk) 19:55, 11 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
What examples, or explanations can be improved? reH ghun ghunwI' 13:59, 14 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I like the examples with the arrows. Maybe the examples in the later sections could be constructed in the same way? --JorisvS (talk) 15:07, 14 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
The thing about the arrows is that it is good for suffixes, as it is useful for showing how one morpheme changes the meaning of the word, but is not that useful for more complicated stuff, as you must explain exaclty what each morpheme is doing (as in the relative clause section). But I do need to add examples for the rovers and for the comparatives. As a sidenote, what can I do to get it to B-class? reH ghun ghunwI' 03:02, 16 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
You could first give the constituent phrases and then show how they are combined. This works for both the Clauses and the Comparatives sections. Try WP:WikiProject Languages/Assessment#Grading scheme and take a look at the criteria for B class. --JorisvS (talk) 13:57, 17 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Tt-Klingon

[edit]

I've put all Klingon text into typewriter font for clarity (see top of page, Tt-Klingon), as well as changing ASCII apostrophe (') to Unicode Right single quotation mark (aka curly apostrophe), U+2019 () where that hadn't been already done. --Thnidu (talk) 06:19, 7 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Klingon Language Wiki

[edit]

My contributions on this wikipedia make clear that I am an experienced Klingon speaker. As a member of the Klingon Language Institute and being known as the ″Klingon Teacher From Germany″, I would like to invite you to join the Klingon Language Wiki which I have set up. It is a place to write anything about Klignon, especially articles which might not be relevant for Wikipedia.

Do not confuse this with the Klingon Encyclopedia, which is a foundling after wikipedia abandoned its Klingon section. A Klingon Dictionary Wiki can also be found on the web. This new Wiki though is about anything related to the klingon Language. Like in Wikipedia, everyone can contribute. Even if you don't speak Klingon, you may help correcting bad phrases or translate articles from English to German. You may see it on http://wiki.qephom.de/
