</blockquote><p class="">Yes, in all Klingon studies, the words <i class="">sentence</i> and <i class="">clause
</i>are nearly synonymous, and whenever I say "sentence," I really
mean "sentence or clause," with the understanding that in Klingon
studies, a "clause" is one of the structures described in TKD as
basic sentences, subordinate clauses (including relative clauses
and purpose clauses), "to be" constructions, comparatives and
superlatives, and that sentences can be single clauses or compound
clauses as described in TKD as complex sentences.</p><p class="">So you'll forgive me if I routinely compress all that down to
"sentence" in exactly the same way TKD does.<br class="">
