I would guess that he just forgot about what they were
called in TKD and just from his mind translated "others"
literally as {latlh}. <br>
<br>
And staying "in the game": naming the {chuvmey} as {latlh}
still makes sense. {chuvmey} perhabs is not really a
grammatical term, but just a way to refer to anything that's
not a verb or a noun (or suffix, of course). <br>

<p>It would have to be the other way round: "By far the bulk
of Klingon words are nouns and verbs. There are a few others
which, probably as an expedient, Klingon grammarians lump
together in a group called <b>chuvmey</b> <i>leftovers.</i>"</p>
<p>So Marc may be calling them <b>latlh</b> when giving a
talk at Mythmoot, but <b>chuvmey</b> certainly is a
grammatical term.<br>

<div>Maybe Morskan or Krotmag or some other dialect yet to be
described doesn’t have the word “chuv”, so people speaking those
dialects call the chuvmey “latlh”.</div>
<br>
</blockquote>
<p>Maybe, but Marc was teaching the standard dialect. Besides, if it
had been Morskan, it would have been called <b>lats.</b><br>
