"Monger" certainly had not occurred to me. {joS bopwI'} seems like it would be best translated as "rumor monger." A {veS bopwI'}, though, seems like someone devoted to soldiering, rather than a warmonger (probably {noH numwI'} for that, but with no negative connotation for Klingons), and I'd call a fishmonger a {ghotI' ngevwI'}.

{bopwI'}, but rather as an example of an English word that needs another
noun to make sense, like {bopwI'} would. The best way to translate "rumor monger" would probably just be {joSwI'}.<br></div></div><br></div></div>
