Klingon Word of the Day for Tuesday, November 26, 2019

Klingon word: vI'Hop
Part of speech: noun
Definition: indirect object
Source: qep'a' 26 [2019]
_______________________________________________

AFAIK never used in a sentence.

SEE:
'ovmay 		direct object (n) (qep'a' 2019)
SeSor 		subject (n) (qep'a' 2019)

Anyone see a pun in these new grammar words?  The only one I can work out is, maybe, {vI'} "sharpshooting, marksmanship, aim" + {Hop} "be remote, far" -- far/remote aim, i.e. beyond the direct object??

Before the qep'a', {DoS} "target" was occasionally used, faute de mieux, for this here on the Mailing List.

SEE ALSO:
mu’tlhegh 	sentence (n)
pab buv 	part of speech (n)
DIp  		noun (n)
wot 		verb (n)
chuvmey	leftovers (i.e. not a verb or noun) (n)
