This makes no difference on the card itself (because it's all-caps on the actual card), but the name of Jol Yichu'! should technically be "jol yIchu'!" in the database. Klingon speakers apparently take capitalization -- especially capital I's in the middle of words -- extremely seriously.

I checked about half a dozen sources to make sure, and they all agree that "j" and "y" are not capitalized, but the "I" is. (That's an "I" as in "ice cream" not an "l" as in "loss".)

I thought it might be fun to see what the actual script for the movie said... and the answer is amusing........
KIRK - SUN LARGER BEHIND HIM (ILM ELEMENTS) 250

Amid the death knell of this place, Kirk knows it is
now or never. A desperate idea forms. With
determination, he picks Spock up and shoulders him.
Then drawing his communicator, he flips it open and
takes his best shot:

KIRK
(in guttural Klingon)
(Maltz... Activate beam!...)

There is a moment of uncertainty. Kirk is about to try
again when the Klingon beam SOUND begins and...
I'd like to lobby for a card called "guttural Klingon" someday

Sure looks like it. Even the markings on the bulkhead behind it match.

Or they ported the source over from 2e Tricorder which is absolutely from The Most Toys
