Daddy when you're young or trying to be endearing or want something 
Dad otherwise. Nobody says father except when they're talking to company they don't know very well.
And the same with mother. People say mum, mummy when they're young or...etc. And mam if you're Welsh or called Kat.

Es ist ein guttes Tag zu totten...or something like that.

töten - to kill
sterben - to die
"ein guter Tag zum Sterben" - a good day to die
Vielleicht sollten wir das Thema wechseln. 
War da nicht etwas mit Plätzchen und Keksen in Deutschland?
Maybe we should change the subject.
Wasn't there something with Plätzchen and Kekse in Germany?

Aber für eine Klingonin wie mich, ist jeder Tag ein guter Tag zu sterben - und vermutlich noch besser, zu töten
But for a Klingon like me every day is a good day to die - and probably even a better day to kill
