I've occasionally joked that the proper idiomatic translation of the Klingon standard "Hello" greeting is closer to "What the f*** do you want?" than anything else...
I recall hearing the closest translators could get to "Can you tell me how to get to Sesame Street?" was "Inform me immediately how to get to Sesame Street"...
