It would probably be called "Glory to you"
... and your houussse! Sorry, I just cannot say one without the other.
You have to do the Gowron eyes too though!
I can hear those eyes.
When I close my eyes.... I can still see his
That's the hard part.
👀aaand your hoooouuuussseee!
(eh)
Only because you value keeping your eyes in their sockets.
French and Portuguese at the convention, their arms open.
Love, when the convention ended
Is there a source for this. I need this to be true!
Alas, it is not http://klingon.wiki/En/Anecdotes
There was an animated tv show that had this as a plot line, where an american man met a woman from japan. I can’t remember what show it was, though. Its a memory barely visible in the back of my brain.
It does happen among Esperanto speakers; parents whose common language is Esperanto is a major source of what few native speakers there are.

If one was from France and the other was from Portugal, they missed an opportunity to meet in the middle and speak Andorian/Andorran. He could still read her poetry but without all the ducking involved in Klingon courtship.

Without all the fun? No thanks!

I wish i could learn languages in a few months
You can. Step 1 find a group that welcomes non language speakers. I used mmos to try. Can also just have 1 person. But I find guilds better since you get more exposure. Step 2 ignore grammar and just caveman it. Why many word when few work. Then when you no longer need google translate to understand and to talk learn grammar. Language is a tool for communication so focus on being understood before proper sentence and conjugation.
Yeah I live with someone who speaks another language. Shit isn’t easy and take longer than a few months.
It depends on what your goal is. If its simply to communicate it does not have to take that long sure it will be very broken
Me hungry me eat instead of I eat when I am hungry but as long as you get the message across you have succeded with communicating.
I tried to learn English for years. At school, and then outside school, but I couldn't make any serious progress.
And then I learnt Esperanto. Because Esperanto is regular and almost logical, in a few weeks I was able to speak to foreigners in a language that wasn't my mother tongue. And that experience permitted me to speak English, even if I totally stopped to try to learn it. Something clicked in my brain. I'm still no Shakespeare, I'm sure there are tons of errors in this message, but I can now read (even novels), understand, write and speak English comfortably.
If one is raised in a monolingual environment, the brain begins to believe that there are no other other language it can speak as efficiently as the first language. And it's true. But this shouldn't be a barrier; and to make this barrier fall is one of the hardest parts in language learning. But the good news is that once it fell for one language, it fell for all languages. Of course there are other ways than Esperanto to make it fall, but it was the one which worked for me.
It helps that they're so incredibly similar. My Portuguese grandmother can speak well enough to french, Italian, and Spanish people. Just from each person using their own language

Or prune juice: a warrior's drink
This one always confused me. Prunes are dried plums. Is it dehydrated plum juice? Or... Something else? I guess I should google it one day.
Yeah dried plums. Idk why it suddenly becomes a new word, something French I think?
