Is there a canon precedent for a phrase like "The day on which xy happened"? Like in "remember the day we first met". {maqIHbogh jaj} sounds wrong. The only thing that came to my mind was from the Drinking song, but I think that one is not considered a best example, is it? {jaj qeylIS molor mIgh Hoghchu'qu'} "The day on which Khaless" killed evil Molor. -- Lieven L.

Maybe it could be considered short for (maqIHbogh <maH> jaj) "the day of us who meet for the first time" ter'eS Sent from my Verizon, Samsung Galaxy smartphone -------- Original message --------From: Alan Anderson <qunchuy(a)alcaco.net> Date: 5/25/17 1:38 AM (GMT-06:00) To: Klingon language email discussion forum <tlhingan-hol(a)kli.org> Subject: Re: [tlhIngan Hol] This day On Wed, May 24, 2017 at 9:21 PM, SuStel <sustel(a)trimboli.name> wrote: The trouble with {maqIHbogh jaj} is that the relative clause has no head. Or that its head is neither the object or the subject of the clause, which is something Marc Okrand said he couldn't make work. I think it works, after a fashion, but it "doesn't sound right" to most people -- so it probably isn't. -- ghunchu'wI'
