Australian Cave Offers Klingon Audio Tour

Posted by samzenpus on from the enjoy-the-tour-you-filthy-targ dept.

schliz writes "An Australian cave system visited by 200,000 tourists a year is expanding its range of audio guides to support Klingon. Cave operators reportedly engaged the services of two 'Klingon scholars' from the US, following Star Trek's naming of a 'Sydney Class' Starship, the USS Jenolan."

    How do you say "This cave is dark and musty, just like Mom's basement!" in Klingon?

  2. Important question by Vinegar+Joe · · Score: 2, Funny

    Will the tour be conducted in the Northern or Southern Klingon dialect? I find the Northern dialect to sound rather classless.

    I love this site which claims among other things that most of its translators are native Klingon speakers.

    "Qapla mates and welcome to the caves. I'm Gorvok and I'll be your guide today. Gakh and bloodwine are available at the concession stand on the surface, and if you truly have the stomach of a klingon, we also have Fosters. Just like a bird of prey, the caves also don't have bathrooms so make sure to hit the loo before we start. If you happen to get lost in the caves, just remember it's a good day to die and I'll see you in Stovalkor."

      If they truly have the stomach of a Klingon, I'll expect them to enjoy Vegemite crumpets.
