Stumbled over this in Gothenburg, Sweden. Made my day.

I took a stab at it. Transliterated, it says: "Qapla'. Qu'Dunvad ghunwl' DlSam." I ran it through Bing's translator (since the only word I recognize is Qapla'), and I got "Success. Your baby better is done." I think the translation is wrong. When I was playing with another translator, it gave me "Success. For the glorious battle has begun" which seems more fitting.

I believe, since it's a recruitment poster, the translation is "We seek programmers for a great mission."
- Qu' = mission
- Dun = to be great
- -vaD = for
- ghun = to program
- -wI' = one who does
- DI- = we — them
- Sam = to seek

Now this is the content I subscribe for! Thank you!

Translating the website (search up Castra Sweden), it seems to be an IT consultant/management place (that has a lot of sci-fi references from Star Wars/Star Trek), so this is probably the best and most accurate translation. Good job on your Klingon! You are a glorious warrior, unlike me!

I'm not getting Sam? The transliteration looks right, but I don't see it in the dictionary.
e2a: Fun toys:
- Write in plqaD script: http://klingonska.org/writing/play/ (Qapla’. Qu’DunvaD ghunwI’ DISam.)
- Klingon-English Dictionary (google it - I think the link I have is shady, but they're out there. also available on amazon)
- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klingonlanguage
- ChatGPT is pretty good at translating Klingon.
