Question on Klingon words. (Mating?)

I have a question about klingon words. I have a klingon dictionary and I have been looking at it but I notice a few more words have come out since when the dictonary was published. So my question is, will they put out a new klingon dictionary with new words in it do you think, or is there a site to go to to find out new words and things?

I'm looking for the klingon word for "mating" for my cousin, she wants to tell her hubby what it is so they can discuss things around their kids.

Words not in the Dictionory are to be found here. I thinK parmach is the closest match you will get to mating at this time, but I'm hardly an expert at tlhIngan Hol.

They have. "Klingon for the Galactic Traveler" (KGT). It should be able to be special-ordered at most major booksellers.

{HIja'} Yes.

{nga'chuq}
This means "to mate with each other" (Kinda). It's marked as "Subject only", which, to quote the KLI's list, "probably refers to the concept that all involved parties collectively make the subject of this verb."
Your cousin probably wants something like:
{ramvam manga'chuq DaneH'a'?} (Asking hubby) or
{manga'chuq vIneH} (Stating her wishes)

Also:
{ngagh}
This is the act, regardless of who is doing what to whom.
Ex:
{targhlIj yIngagh! yIruch!}
"Go mate with your targh!"
"Power Klingon" (PK)

Hope this helps.

There is also "seloh"/{SIy'loH}: sexual intercourse (n)
[From "Sins of the Father", (TNG).]
