DaHram

A quick report from qepHom'a' 2023, more to come later: During the party at the second night, some attendee proudly came to me and reported we finally got a word for "tonight": it's {DaHram} It's confirmed by Marc Okrand that this is a new word. While we were discussing this with him, we immediately came to the conclusion: if you have {DaHram}, there must also be {DaHpem}. He also confirmed that other combinations were possible, like {DaHpo} and {DaHpov} etc. During that same discussion, we realized that terms for "tonight" and so on had already been discussed many years before, see MSN 1997-06-29, https://klingon.wiki/En/Msn_1997-06-29d Okrand said that's no problem. The new words are just shortened forms of the longer phrases. So basically, {DaHram} is a short form for {DaHjaj ram} and so on. -- Lieven L.
