Discovery subtitles words

Hello again, Here are some more words that were asked by several people: ---- For the archive: this is printed in qepHom 2017, page 8. ---- {mI'wI' much} n. "dance show", a show consisting of people dancing. It can be used to translate "cabaret" if the cabaret show consists entirely or nearly entirely of dancing, but that's a special and infrequent situation. {much Qe'} n. "cabaret", means the location, such as a nightclub or restaurant where there's food/drink along with a show. {Qe' much} n. "cabaret" means the show performed in such a place. {Huj} is "strange" as in unfamiliar {jum} is "odd" as in peculiar, unexpected, fishy {taQ} is "weird" as in bizarre, unnatural, maybe creepy An "odd number" is {mI' mob} An "even number" is {mI' mobHa'} In appropriate contexts, the {mI'} could be left out. {tem} v. "deny" means "contradict, disavow, claim as false" and the like. It does not mean "refuse, reject, turn down, don't permit" In TKD, {DenIb} and {DenIbya'} are both glossed "Denebia." But that's an error. The planet name in English is Deneb, not Denebia. But this coming-and-going -ya' thing crept its way into the English side of the dictionary somehow. HIvqa' veqlargh! The Klingon, however, is correct: there are two versions of this name. ---- This information from #qepHom2017 will be added to the page "Message from Maltz" on qepHom.de later: https://www.qephom.de/e/message_from_maltz.html -- Lieven L.

This means "make a cracking or snapping sound" but can also be used to mean "emit a signal". Maybe Klingons used to use Geiger counters a lot. LLL: How is this different to {tlhuD} "emit radiation"? MO: {rIS} originally referred to emitting sound only. Later the meaning was extended to mean emitting any sort of signal - sound, radiation, smell, etc. {tlhuD} refers to radiation only. LLL: So a {rISwI'} would be some sending device, right? MO: It could mean this, yes. LLL: How would I say that I receive or detect a signal? What about {rISHa'}? Is it the opposite of "sending"? MO: {rISHa'} would refer to sending a signal improperly, like maybe to the wrong person. It wouldn't mean receive or detect a signal. yuQDaq Dat rISbogh wabvam Qoylu'.

And if it does receive moderator approval, how will I know that it actually went through ? Will I receive a delivery report ? I'm asking because it was a klingon message, and I got a headache writing it. ~ nI'ghma On Dec 27, 2017 17:35, "mayqel qunenoS" <mihkoun(a)gmail.com> wrote: I just got a message that a message I sent, because it exceeds a size limit, it awaits moderator approval.
