an observation on the use of {vI'} "decimal point"
by mayqel qunen'oS 15 Jul '21

15 Jul '21

Read the following Ca'Non sentences: HIvtaHvIS toQDuj cha'vatlh wejmaH Soch vI' vagh chorgh 'uj 'ab 'oH Attack Formation Height: 82.75 M. (KBoP) qughtaHvIS toQDuj HutmaH vI' jav wa' 'uj 'ab 'oH Cruise Formation Height: 31.56 M. (KBoP) SaqtaHvIS toQDuj wa'vatlh loS vI' jav chorgh 'uj 'ab 'oH Landing Formation Height: 36.46 M. (KBoP) At the above sentences we see, that the decimal numbers (if that's how you call in english the crap that follows the decimal point), is given by saying each number separately, instead of reading the whole number as a unit: > vI' vagh chorgh > decimal point five eight - not {vaghmaH chorgh} - > vI' jav wa' > decimal point six one - not {javmaH wa'} - > vI' jav chorgh > decimal point six eight - not {javmaH chorgh} - ~ Dana'an

is the noun {gher'ID} used for good for bad or for both
by mayqel qunen'oS 15 Jul '21

15 Jul '21

{gher'ID} (n) "results, outcome, effect, repercussions, consequence, ramification". The words "results/outcome/effect" -the way I understand them- are neutral; i.e. we can have a positive or negative result, a positive or negative outcome, a positive or negative effect. But googling repercussion/ramification I found: - repercussion: "an unintended consequence of an event or action, especially an unwelcome one". - ramification: "a complex or unwelcome consequence of an action or event". So, when it comes to the klingon noun {gher'ID} do we use it for results/outcomes/effects which are good, which are bad, or can we use it for both? ~ Dana'an

expressing "the nerve of this guy"
by mayqel qunen'oS 15 Jul '21

15 Jul '21

In english we say "can you believe, the nerve of this guy?", which I think is described by one of the meanings of the adjective "bold" as "impudent/presumptuous", as is shown here: https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/bold. Also, according to merriam-webster one of the definitions of "nerve" is: "assurance, boldness also: presumptuous audacity: gall". (https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/nerve) So, I ask.. You want to say "Can you imagine the nerve of that guy? Although he crashed my car, he wants me to pay for the damages he caused to that poor man's house too". How would you express in klingon this meaning of the word "nerve"? I don't think we could use the verb {jaq}, since according to kgt, the {jaqmoH} "embolden" can be said of music, which I don't think means the negative meaning of "the nerve of that guy". ~ Dana'an
