[tlhIngan Hol] Cloaking Device words from Maltz

Thanks for forwarding these to the List.  Here are some quick vocabulary observations.

New nomina agentis from existing verbs:

{lISwI’} “conditioner” from {lIS} “adjust, moderate” (v)
{chungwI’} “accelerator” from {chung} “accelerate” (v)
{tlhuDwI’} “emitter” from {tlhuD} “emit (energy, radiation)” (v)
{HISmoHwI’} “compressor” from {HIS} “be compressed” (v)

Expansions/new glosses for existing nouns:

{yIb} “inlet” from {yIb} “vent” (n)
{yu’egh} “waveform” from {yu’egh} “wave” (n)

And two completely new words (to me):

{meqHoD} “bypass” or “axis”? (n)
{SIl} “divert” (v) - which produces {SIlwI’} “diverter” (n)

Have these two appeared in recent qep’a’mey/qepHommey?

What exactly is the “Bird of Prey Workshop Owner's Manual”?  It supplements nicely the {tlhIngan toQDuj 'ay'mey tetlh} “Klingon Bird of Prey Technical Callouts” poster.

Hello! Here is some information I have acquired from Maltz.

At the qep'a', I took the Cloaking Device phrases from the Bird of Prey Workshop Owner's Manual and presented those to Okrand. Okrand provided me with these translations (for some he did not have a translation as they were not really parts of the cloaking device according to Maltz):



  1.  Frequency Conditioner Inlet: Se’ lISwI’ yIb
  2.  Frequency Conditioner: Se’ lISwI’
  3.  Blast Debris Shield: DI yoD
  4.  First-stage Teleport Waveform Accelerator: yu’egh chungwI’ wa’ [This is actually “primary waveform accelerator”]
  5.  Axial Waveform Bypass Conduit: yu’egh meqHoD ’och [This is actually just “waveform bypass conduit”]
  6.  Photon Spill Window: ’otlh tlhuDmeH Qorwagh
  7.  Second-stage Teleport Waveform Accelerator: yu’egh chungwI’ cha’ [This is actually “secondary waveform accelerator”]
  8.  Shield Energy Diverter: botjan HoS SIlwI’
  9.  Diverter Ion Sensor: SIlwI’ tat noch
  10. Cloaking Field Emitter Monitor: So’chem tlhuDwI’ jIHwI’
  11. Emitter Waveform Compressor: tlhuDwI’ yu’egh HISmoHwI’
  12. Cloaking Field Emitter: So’chem tlhuDwI’
  13. Structural Support Frames: qal’aqmey
