I’ll try again

- Sorry about that earlier email. I had responded with all the other messages and stuff, so my email was too big. This only has my questions on it! Good evening! This is Cathryn - aka nagh! (I didn’t Reply All because sometimes that is annoying.) I have a question about all the words below for leader/emperor. If I wanted to write a story about the Plagues of Egypt, which word would I use for “Pharaoh”? I asked and made sure - it’s a title, not a name. Same with writing a story about Esther, and there is King Xerxes. (I will be using the longer name that starts with A instead of Xerxes though - it is easier to write in Klingon!) Thanks and I appreciate your help! Qapla’! voDleH emperor (n) ta' emperor (n) la'quv supreme commander (n) Qang chancellor (n) pIn boss (n) pIn'a' master (n) DevwI' leader (n) qumwI' governor (n) che'wI' ruler (n) loHwI' magistrate (n) vu'wI' manager (n) woQ authority, political power (n) woQ'a' ultimate power (n) Sent from Yahoo Mail for iPhone

chabal tetlh words
by Jesse Manoogian 18 Nov '19

Hey, it's Andrew ('anDu) again. It's great to have words for "apron", "extinct", "just", "climate", "paleontology", and many more, including many Klingon names from the DSC movie (I haven't seen the movie and am still excited about having those words confirmed). However, I haven't seen the list of chabal tetlh words we've been voting on up at the Klingon wiki (except 'an'or and jaqtala'). Considering the qepHom is going on now, will we have words for "freckle", "teen", "zinc", "trillion", "blink", "protein", "furniture", etc. soon? (They may have already been revealed, I'm not attending the qepHom so I don't know).

SIntlher

On the chabal pages, Andrew Miller and I were discussing how we could say "dinosaur". We came up with 'an'or lung'a'. A specific term for fossil animals was coined, though: SInthler. Would dinosaur be SInthler lung'a' or lung'a' SInthler? Also, I just figured out the pun behind this word: think of the petroleum products company, or the TV show Dinosaurs.

“bIQ Hurgh Dujmaj SuD”

I have heard "cigar-shaped" a lot too. "Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar." (Would the Klingon equivalent be "Sometimes a torpedo is just a torpedo"?) The English language actually has an adjective for cucumber-shaped things: cucumiform. Lots of things are cucumiform: a banan naH, an 'InSep...

A pickle is basically a pickled cucumber. Don't we describe a lot of things as "cucumber-shaped" in English?

A little bird told me, that at the recent qepHom, new info were revealed, with regards to the words {pI'} and {ror}. However, this info, isn't in the wiki, hanging out with the other qepHom 2019 info. So, could someone add them there or here ? ~ bara'qa'
