I can only assume he called Picard a Sho'vah and Picard responded with "I die free."
- Shal'kek nem'ron!
Your knowledge of Klingon curses is impressive. But as a Romulan might say, only a vahruul would use such language in public.
- I can't imagine Klingons having a concept of "polite language" or otherwise
  
  The culture is intensely subtext based. There are different meanings for how you strike someone. They have rituals for all sorts of everyday tasks, each full of right and wrong ways to do things.
  
  Any culture that has that much subtext in it has language taboos.
Sike! That's the wrong isolinear chip!
