Klingon dictionary is clear that numbers "may stand alone as
subjects or objects or they may modify another noun." It is
an easy logical leap to treat {'ar} in the same way, but
{'ar} is not a type of number and so that may not be
allowed. TKD says only that {'ar} "follows the noun to
which it refers." Does anyone know if any canon which uses
{'ar} as a stand alone subject or object? What do you think
of that use of it and particularly if teaching that use of
it?<br>

<p>I've always thought of that as an interrogative exclamation, much
like <b>chay'?</b><br>
