_______________________________________________<br>
<br>
(Lieven < MO, 2/05/2018): The Klingon verb {ghe'} is the one most likely to be involved here. It means "be transformed, transmuted, metamorphosed, totally altered". In context, if someone said {maS Daghe'moH'a'?} (literally "Are you transforming a moon?"),
this would be understood to mean "Are you terraforming a moon?" If context isn't clear, then there'd have to be more verbiage: {tera' chu' DachenmoHmeH, maS Daghe'moH'a'?} "In order to create a new Earth, are you transforming a moon?") or {maSDaq yInmeH
Humanpu', 'oH Daghe'moH'a'?} "In order that Humans live [be alive] on the moon, are you transforming it?" or {yInvaD maS Daghe'moH'a'?} "Are you transforming a moon to benefit life?" (clunky translation).<br>
