[tlhIngan Hol] whale

[Will Martin]

So, it sounds like a whale, since it breathes air and not water, would be a {bIQDep}, but NOT a {ghotI’}, right?

A {bIQDep} covers most animals that live in the sea.  Marc gave as possible examples "dolphins, whales, fish, octopus" but he said it's not used for shrimps or even smaller animals like water bugs.  When asked for a seal, he said that a seal or a sea lion does not really live IN the water, so that's probably not a {bIQDep}.  Every {ghotI'} is a {bIQDep}, but not every {bIQDep} is a {ghotI'}.
