The only exception is that a {tlhIngan} apparently is not a native of any place named *tlhI* or *tlhIn* or *tlhIng*, and we have not seen any references to a {Qo’noSngan}. One assumes that this must be something like the way tera’nganpu' don’t commonly refer to the Sun as a star. Similarly, we say that those from Venus are Venusians and those from Mars are Martians, but we say we are from Earth, yet we refer to ourselves as “terrestrials” and not *Earthians*. When we talk about home, exceptions are made. Likely, it’s similar for Klingons.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">While TKD did give some examples of both planet names and demonyms of those from those planets, it hasn’t been a persistent trend.</div><br class=""><div class="">
