Klingon Word of the Day for Sunday, November 05, 2023

Klingon word: Duran lung DIr
Part of speech: noun
Definition: Durani lizard skins (food, never uses plural suffix)
Source: KCD
_______________________________________________

 (KCD):  Served dried and thinly sliced. Discovered by a Klingon military unit stranded on Durani I for six months without supplies.

(MO, st.k 3/23/1998):  … if the skin just came off either by natural causes […] or by the creatures being, well, skinned, then the body-part plural suffix {-Du'} may be used: {DIrDu'}.  But {DIr} alone, without a suffix, is heard most often.

Originally spelled {Dura'ngan lung DIr} in the first draft of KCD script.
