Worthless, "holier than thou", judgemental, condescending human trash.. If there's one thing I hate with every fiber of my being, this is hypocrisy.

subject of the verb which refers to the verb of a net sao
by mayqel qunen'oS 06 Mar '21

06 Mar '21

According to tkd: ---------- When the verb of the second sentence has a third-person subject (that is, the pronominal prefix is 0) but the intended meaning is <one> or <someone,> rather than <he, she, it,> or <they,> {net} is used instead of {'e'.} {qama'pu' DIHoH net Sov} <One knows we kill prisoners.> As above, the first sentence here is {qama'pu' DIHoH} <We kill prisoners.> The second sentence is {net Sov} <One knows that.> The full construction implies that it is common knowledge that the group to which the speaker belongs kills prisoners. {Qu'vaD lI' net tu'bej} <One certainly finds it useful for the mission.> The first part of this example is {Qu'vaD lI'} <It is useful for the mission> ({Qu'vaD} <for the mission,> {lI'} <it is useful>). The second part is {net tu'bej} <One certainly finds that> or <One certainly observes that.> The full construction might also be translated <One will certainly observe that it is useful to the mission.> Note that although the word <will> makes a more flowing translation, there is nothing in the Klingon sentence indicating future tense. ---------- Suppose we want to say: "if someone believes gowron is crazy, he's wrong". There are two options: maw' ghawran net Harchugh, vaj mujlu'. maw' ghawran net Harchugh, vaj muj vay'vam/nuvvam/ghotvam/etc. Which of the two would be the correct choice? ~ Dana'an remain klingon

is 'op and 'op-noun construction singular or plural
by mayqel qunen'oS 05 Mar '21

05 Mar '21

Something which has troubled me repeatedly in the past was whether the {'op} (either used on its' own or as part of a noun-noun construction) should be treated as singular or plural. Should we say {vIghro' legh 'op} or {vIghro' lulegh 'op}? Should we say {vIghro' legh 'op yaS} or should we say {vIghro' lulegh 'op yaS}? The word {'op} was given as "some, an unknown or unspecified quantity". But what I can't understand with this definition is this: Does the "some" refer to the "quantity" of the definition which follows after the comma, meaning "some quantity" (which would be singular), or is it to be understood on its' own, meaning things like "some (objects/people/etc)" which would be plural? I wasn't able to decide, until I noticed the {'opleS}. Analyzing this word, we observe something interesting: 'op =some, an unknown or unspecified quantity leS = days from now However.. 'opleS = one day, some day The {'opleS} literally means "some, an unknown or unspecified quantity of days from now", but it is given as "one day, some day" (which is obviously singular). Based on the above, perhaps the correct way to understand the {'op} is that its' "some" refers to the "quantity" meaning "some quantity" (which is singular), and it does not imply things like "some (objects/people/etc)" which would be plural. So, perhaps the correct thing to say is {vIghro' legh 'op} and not {vIghro' lulegh 'op}, and {vIghro' legh 'op yaS} and not {vIghro' lulegh 'op yaS}. However, another question comes to mind.. We want to say "some warriors are klingon". Should we write {tlhIngan chaH 'op SuvwI''e'}, or should we write {tlhIngan ghaH 'op SuvwI''e'}? If the {'op SuvwI'} is singular, then the obvious choice would be {tlhIngan ghaH 'op SuvwI''e'}, which perhaps seems a little strange. On the other hand though, we *do* say {tlhIngan ghaH neghvam'e'}, so why would the {tlhIngan ghaH 'op SuvwI''e'} need to be wrong? Now, perhaps one could argue, that by writing {'op SuvwI'} and treating it as singular, one could understand "some, an unknown or unspecified quantity of a warrior" meaning "just a part of him/his body". However, we *do* have the following Ca'Non sentence: qIvo'rIt pagh'e' qIvo'rIt toQDuj 'oH tlhIngan wo' Duj pagh'e'. ra' qarghan HoD. DujvamDaq tlhIngan nuH tu'lu'bogh pov law' Hoch pov puS 'ej DujvamDaq 'op SuvwI' tu'lu'bogh po' law' tlhIngan yo' SuvwI' law' po' puS. K'Vort Class Pagh The Imperial Klingon Vessel Pagh is a K'Vort-class Bird-of-Prey under the command of Captain Kargan. It has the best weapons and some of the finest warriors in the Klingon fleet. >From this Ca'Non sentence we see, that saying {'op SuvwI'} is to be understood as "some warriors" and not as "some, an unknown or unspecified quantity of a warrior" meaning "just a part of him/his body". Or perhaps it *could* mean something like that too, but at least not necessarily. Anyways, I realize that since there are no Ca'Non answers to all these questions, no one can know for sure, but until we receive these answers (*if* we ever receive them..) I'll probably stick to the conclusions mentioned in this thread. ~ Dana'an remain klingon
