Alternate Klingon Language

Plan:
 * Take the names of Klingons from this page.
 * Isolate a few phonemes.
 * Clean up the orthography.
 * Make some words.
 * Create a grammar including at least a few "battle for / from battle / causing battle" affixes.
 * Make some words.

Notes to self:
 * Try to keep as many vowels as possible.
 * Don't just make some weird nonconcatenative thing just because you can.
 * If you want, make a graveyard of rare graphemes/phonemes and explain why you cut them.
 * Remember: this is inherently arbitrary. Sometimes something just looks bad to you!

The canonical  has a bad. What if it had a slightly different ?

Just to be clear, I am aware that Klingon culture and language is monolithic in Star Trek lore, and for that to be otherwise would be unusual. I'm not sure how this language would fit into that. This is not necessarily an improvement, and it is not official.

You can leave any criticism in the talk page.

I plan on having at least a few derivational affixes which can be attached to words to reframe them in the scope of a battle.

Phonology
Note: The old phonology chart is in the talk page.

List of Klingon Names
These are names which I find particularly useful because they obviously aren't in. Some of them are built for the Hol (like T'kuvma as  if I recall correctly), but the way they are written indicates they are actually different. These can help make sure the language has a distinctive look and feel from the Hol.

The left is the original orthography unchanged. Then comes a phonetic equivalent. As the language I'm creating crystallizes, I will change the phonetic equivalents and put phonological equivalents after them.
