Live Long and Prosper
by Lieven 24 Feb '17

24 Feb '17

One Klingon version for "live long and prosper" {yItaH 'ej yIcheptaH} is usually referenced as "UPN ST 25th Anniversary Special". I know what UPN and ST stand for, but what exactly is that? Is it the TV-show which is found on youtube here? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lLtyi5r7vp0 If yes, where did Okrand say that? (honestly, I have no time to watch the 90 minutes, and besides I've seen the show already long time ago.) Or was it written somewhere else? -- Lieven L.

Noun-noun constructions with quantifiers
by André Müller 20 Feb '17

20 Feb '17

In a noun-noun construction, when introducing a preceding quantifier such as {'op} or {Hoch}, is it better to put it in front of the whole phrase as in a) below, or in front of the second element, as in b)? In this example, I am trying to say "Some Klingon sentences", would that be: a) {'op tlhIngan Hol mu'tlheghmey} or b) {tlhIngan Hol 'op mu'tlheghmey} Sentence a) could be misinterpreted as "sentences of some Klingon languages". This is also the reason why I am tending to choose b). - André
