348814If there are any other students of the latin language who could help me make this a little better, just drop me a line. I couldn't find a vulgarity for "fuck" so I just used the noun of sex and I wasn't about to try "rotor turbines".

I've probably got a couple other little grammar issues going on too.

Somehow I doubt that the latin verb meaning "I am" is a Klingon word. I can't believe that Roddenbury's linguists would borrow from a smooth language to make a gutteral language.

Still, interesting idea...

I forgot where I got the actual translation. Using some online resources I find that it says something like;

http://www.tc.umn.edu/~joela/cgi-bin/targh.cgi

so i says them ['otoR] [turbineS'] am neither against make [gravitonS'] by [mob.]

And then another finds mob to be 'be alone' which is I suppose partly due to the inability of online translaters to have all words and understand context/syntax.

I thought having a Klingon language comic would be about the geekiest variation I could do. I thought about Latin, but to me ideally some ancient hittite or cuniform type of thing would be really funny.

I also made an all binary language comic entitled "Jokes for Robots".

why not try a pig latin variation?
