If emerald is a beryl and Patmore was the surname of Beryl Patmore, that's almost certainly the pun! I notice, however, that we have a request for "beryllium" currently up at the chabal tetlh. This pun on "beryl" has been taken, so Marc Okrand will need to come up with a second beryl pun as a Klingon word for beryllium? *'o'qapyt*? Perhaps, turning to another character named Beryl, Marc Okrand will use *qeyqoHan*. >Message: 3>Date: Mon, 11 Dec 2023 15:57:00 +0000 >From: Steven Boozer <sboozer(a)uchicago.edu> >To: "tlhingan-hol(a)kli.org" <tlhingan-hol(a)kli.org> >Subject: Re: [tlhIngan Hol] Klingon Word of the Day: patmor >Message-ID: >Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" > >Klingon Word of the Day for Saturday, December 09, 2023 > >Klingon word: patmor >Part of speech: noun >Definition: emerald >Source: Wizard of Oz translation >_______________________________________________ > >AFAIK not used in a sentence. > >PUN: A "Downton Abbey" pun?
