Works on an M1 iMac
boQwI' is a great resource for anyone interested in learning the Klingon language. I've used it for years on my iPhone and now I can use it on my iMac as well. The App Store says it is not verified for Macs, but I can verify, it's working fine on a Mac.
It's a bidirectional dictionary with reference charts for verb prefixes and verb and noun suffixes, useful phrases, canon sources, etc. No terran should be caught without it.

Fantastic Resource
My favorite and probably most used app on my phone.
Excellent resource
Great app to help learn tlhIngan Hol. Provides word breakdown and English to Klingon and Klingon to English translation. Explains noun and verb suffixes and prefixes. A must have for the Klingon language student.
Best app/online resource I’ve seen so far
Taking a duolingo course in Klingon only goes so far, for one thing it only teaches you the (English only?) transliteration of words & some grammar/syntax. No audio, and no dictionary. When I run into words outside of my lessons that I’m not familiar with, such as watching a subtitled ST episode, boQwI’ never fails to provide valuable insight. The search is quite intuitive as well, I can start typing in English or transliterated Klingon and it will bring up multiple possibilities for what I might be looking for. It also lists and defines the homonyms (and as it turns out, Klingon has a bunch of those) and does a good job explaining the appropriate context when applicable. At my current level of learning, and for such a relatively obscure language, this is by far the best tool I’ve seen. And bonus, it occasionally offers YouTube links to pronunciation videos which are hilarious and awesome. Qapla’!
