Apple iPhone 5c ad

Klingon Phrases

The two shown "klingons" use simple masks, so it is intentionally visible that these are disguised Humans, and not really Klingons. The background of a comic book store underline this theory.

The used phrases are both taken directly from The Klingon Dictionary. The pronunciation is not perfect, but not bad either.

right person:	nuqneH	What do you want?	A standard Klingon greeting
left person:	nuqDaq yuch Dapol?	Where do you keep the chocolate?	A phrase to catch someone's attention.
