<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">(st.klingon): the word <b>bang</b> is indeed a noun meaning
<i>love</i>, but it refers to the object of one's affection, that is, <i>beloved one</i>. (In Star Trek III, Kruge refers to Valkris as
<b>bangwI' </b>"my love" in this sense.)<b><o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b> Qapla' jawwI' bangwI' je</b> <br>
<b> </b>Success my lord and my love. ST3<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">[Before you ask, <b>jaw</b> is an alternative form of <b>joH</b>.]<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b> reH bang larghlu'</b> <br>
<b> </b>Love is always smelled.<br>
(lit. "A loved one is always smelled.") TKW <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b> HIchop, bang</b> <br>
<b> </b>Give us a kiss, love. RT<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">For the emotional or physical response called “love” – though “lust” would probably be closer to the mark - use
<b>parmaq</b>:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">(KGT 199): ... <b>parmaq</b>, conventionally translated <i>
love</i> or <i>romance</i> (though the Klingon concept is far more aggressive than the Federation Standard translations imply)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><br>
(KGT 207): there are some words that simply do not translate. One must resort to descriptions rather than simple one- or two-word translations, and one must be a quite facile in the language and knowledgeable of the culture to understand the concepts. ...
So is <b>parmaq</b>, the Klingon term for an aggressive sort of romantic feeling.

<p>The word <i>love</i> also means the person. <b>bang</b> refers to the person, not the emotion. It's listed as "love, one who is loved" because you're going to look it up under
<i>l, </i>not <i>o.</i><o:p></o:p></p>
