yobta' yupma'
by mayqel qunen'oS 19 Jun '19

19 Jun '19

At qepHom 2014, the {yobta' yupma'} was given for "harvest festival". A phrase which has something to do with some novel, but that's not important. Can someone use the {yobta'} on its own for "a/the harvest", or does it have to be used as a set phrase {yobta' yupma'} ? ~ m. qunen'oS I find set phrases disturbing

noun-noun constructions and {Hoch}
by mayqel qunen'oS 19 Jun '19

19 Jun '19

Is there any known restriction, in using {Hoch} in the middle of a noun-noun construction ? For example: juH Hoch raS each table of the house It "feels" somewhat strange seeing a {Hoch} in the middle, but I can't understand if there is indeed something wrong with it. The only "problem" I can think of, is perhaps the ambiguity of whether the {Hoch} refers to the {raS} or to the {juH}. ~ m. qunen'oS

tlhIngan maH

19 Jun '19

I've just been asked this by a beginner. I know what I could answer, but I wondered if there is a canon explanation, and also what your answers might be. It has certainly been asked before: Why is it {tlhIngan maH} and not {tlhInganpu' maH}? -- Lieven L. Litaer aka the "Klingon Teacher from Germany" http://www.klingonisch.de http://www.klingonwiki.net/En/BeginnersQuestions

{Sa'Hut qung} lo'lu''a' pagh {Sa'Hut QemjIq} lo'lu''a'?
by Michael Kúnin 19 Jun '19

19 Jun '19

Accroding to Maltz, one can fill a {QemjIq} but not a {qung} so would {Sa'Hut QemjIq} be more appropriate?
