Klingon Word of the Day for Saturday, December 04, 2021

Klingon word: 	teblaw'
Part of speech: 	noun
Definition: 	jurisdiction
_______________________________________________

AFAIK never used in a sentence or discussed.  

Dos {teblaw'} refer to judicial jurisdiction while {Daq'a'} refers to political jurisdiction (i.e. "territory" so to speak)? :
   tlhIngan wo' Daq'a' bo'elpu'!  
   You have entered the jurisdiction of the Klingon Empire! (ST11 deleted line)

wuqwI'  	juror (n)
  - (Klingon Alice, p.233): A jury is not a Klingon institution, of course, so there’s no readymade term. Maltz thought if you called a juror a {wuqwI’} (“decider”) that would get the idea across.  A jury — the panel or group of jurors — could be {wuqwI’ ghom}. And for extra clarity, you could add {bo’DIj}, as in {bo’DIj wuqwI’ ghom}.
