<div>I'm not exactly sure how everyone has decided that Klingons view
<b>qajunpaQ</b> as necessarily positive. We're told it fairly
clearly about <b>butlh</b> in TKW. But for <b>qajunpaQ</b> it
seems to me to be pretty much an exact correspondence to the
idiomatic sense of <i>nerve,</i> neutral without context. The
only special connotation we're told about <b>qajunpaQ</b> is that
it implies a surprising or reckless kind of courage that the
neutral <b>toDuj</b> does not.</div></div></blockquote></div><div><br></div><div>Given that Kang "almost killed Curzon that day" for the latter's display of {qajunpaQ}, it's pretty clearly not necessarily positive from a Klingon point of view. </div><div><br></div>-- <br><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature">De'vID</div></div>
