The link I gave at the Klingon wiki said the word was non-canon. >Message: 2>Date: Wed, 19 Jul 2023 13:42:24 +0000 >From: Steven Boozer <sboozer(a)uchicago.edu> >To: "tlhingan-hol(a)kli.org" <tlhingan-hol(a)kli.org> >Subject: Re: [tlhIngan Hol] Glommer >>Actually, we seem to already have one: {ghIlo'meH}: >(Felix, 2/13/2018): The word {ghIlo'meH} (has it been canonized?) has rather an interesting origin. As far as I can tell, it began its >journey in the book ?Star Trek: Forged in Fire?, where the author decided to "klingonize" the word *glommer* as *{glo'meH} (which >violates ordinary syllable structure in exactly the same way that *glommer* does). Then *{glo'meH} was used as an English word in >?How to Speak Klingon?, which was then properly klingonized as {ghIlo'meH}. It's essentially come about through a strange game >of Telephone/Chinese Whispers ... but then again, I suppose that's true of much of language in general. >See ?How to speak Klingon: essential phrases for the intergalactic traveler? by Ben Grossblatt (San Francisco: Chronicle Books, >?2013). ISBN 9781452118147.
