http://trekcore.com/blog/2017/09/recap-fan-expo-canada-star-trek-discovery-… <As a touchstone, we looked to John Ford’s THE FINAL REFLECTION which was a work really used as a launching-off point for the Klingons by Bryan Fuller. There is Klingon text on the steps [inside the ship], we have a lot of ritual torches and sarcophagi and glyphs, and other details. For example, [one section of] the Klingon text… was all carefully researched and taken from transcripts from THE FINAL REFLECTION, and we made sure that we had accurate Klingon translation. This one, says [speaks Klingon to audience] which reads: “‘I will go now to Sto’vo’kor, but I promise one day I will return.’ Then Kahless pointed to a star in the sky and said, look for me there, in that point of light.” Which is a big promise from Kahless! ... This got into details like the game of Klin zha from THE FINAL REFLECTION, a game that warlords play against each other as a teaching game to teach military strategy… and bloodwine cups, which even have text on them — translated in this case to “May Your Blood Scream.”> Was the "point of light" thing from John Ford? I thought it was from the TNG Rightful Heir. (Or did TNG get it from Ford?) Also, we may finally see klin zha become canon on screen. I know I'll be watching for the {'IwlIj jachjaj} on the bloodwine cups. -- De'vID

Two {-'e'}'s in a pronoun sentence.
by mayqel qunenoS 12 Sep '17

12 Sep '17

If we write a sentence as "a is b" we need to place the {'e'} on b. So we need to write {b 'oH a'e'}. If we wanted to stress the b, could we place an {-'e'} there too ? Could we write {b'e' 'oH a'e'} ? And there is another thing too.. Lets say we write {b 'oHbogh a'e'}; and we want the b to be the subject of a larger sentence. Could we write {yadda yadda yadda b'e' 'oHbogh a'e'} ? But if we could indeed do something like this, wouldn't there be confusion with regards to which one of the two (a or b) is the subject ? qunnoq

Re: [tlhIngan Hol] jIHtaHbogh naDev vISovbe'

It is a good question - I am also wondering about this sentence, because somehow it feels wrong to include {naDev} at all. What about : jIHtaHbogh Daq vISovbe' (I don't know the place where I am) Or:Daqvam vIngu'laHbe' (I can't identify this place) Envoyé depuis mon smartphone Samsung Galaxy. -------- Message d'origine --------De : mayqel qunenoS <mihkoun(a)gmail.com> Date : 12/09/2017 18:42 (GMT+01:00) À : tlhingan-hol(a)kli.org Objet : [tlhIngan Hol] jIHtaHbogh naDev vISovbe' {jIHtaHbogh naDev vISovbe'} I'm lost. (TKD Useful Expressions) I can't understand the grammar of this sentence; wouldn't it be more logical for it to be {naDev jIHtaHbogh vISovbe'} for "I don't know the here (i.e. my location) where I am" ? qunnoq

Expressing how much
by mayqel qunenoS 11 Sep '17

11 Sep '17

Is there a way to ask "how much do you love me" ? The {'ar} can be used only in reference to a noun, so what happens in cases as the above ? Is there a solution ? The only way I can think of making this question, is {chomuSHa'qu''a' ?}. But again, this would translate to "do you love me a lot ?", and not "how much do you love me ?". qunnoq
