Assuming that the difference is the same as in English (and other languages with roughly the same terminology):


A complex number is a number that has a real component and an imaginary component.

  *   Real numbers are complex numbers with an imaginary component of 0. For example, 5 = 5+0i.

  *   Imaginary numbers are complex numbers with a a real component of 0. For example, sqrt(-1) = i = 0 + 1i.
  *   0 is usually considered both real and imaginary; it makes life easier if both the real and imaginary number lines are contiguous.


You can think of it as a two-dimensional number plane, but with some special calculation rules (i.e. (a+bi)^2 = a^2 -b^2 + 2abi) that make it different from, say, R^2 (the real coordinate plane).


This interpretation also makes sense when you consider the meaning of {mergh}, "to be combined".

So what's the difference between mI' mergh complex number and mI' rorgh imaginary number?

Is yemDeq canvas a material or a surface on which an artist works (no doubt sometimes a specific material that an artist may work on)?

tew has entwine, be entwined but then says to use tewmoH for an object. Is "entwine" correct? Is the correct meaning "be entwined," and "entwine" is just an English-lookup word (and why isn't it "entwined")?

Head over to https://www.kli.org/about-klingon/new-language-information/qepa-wejmah-wadich-new-words/ to see them all!

If you have questions about these words, let me know!

We do know that no translation is given for tlhugh and are working on getting the meaning.

Qapla'!
