must fight OCD.

It's not literally "Yo Momma". Quch is a Klingon Crest. It probably means something like you have a weak crest, or you have a smooth forehead.

Ha! Ok, so the site that's selling the shirt says, "Special thanks to Dr. Lawrence M. Schoen, Director of the Klingon Language Institute, who set our Klingon orthography straight."

So perhaps its not so much as a LITERAL/VERBATUM translation as it is a "Culture" translation.

Shrug.

NERDS!!!!

It occurred to me that it might mean 'Your mother has a smooth crest'. I can't look into it as my text books are packed away somewhere.
