    In Klingon:

    'IH data

    Pronounced (more or less) "Ikh’, ‘H’ has a guttural throaty sound to it. And agreement goes verb-subject. Klingon doesn’t use “to be”, it more or less treats any adjective or verb in that position as an infinitive.

    Additionally, male/female are (mostly) indeterminate in Klingon; the pronoun “ghaH” can mean he or she. 'IH can mean handsome or beautiful depending on the subject.
