pIqaD in Unicode--again
by Mark Shoulson 15 Nov '16

15 Nov '16

Thought I would let people here know, since I have sort of acted on my own on this. I've submitted another paper to the Unicode Consortium asking to encode pIqaD finally: http://www.unicode.org/L2/L2016/16329-piqad-returns.pdf They always said it wasn't encoded because people weren't using it: I disprove that claim in the document. The discussion on the mailing list there is starting to heat up again; this time they're saying that there are problems with Paramount's copyright and all, but that's also not relevant, and even if it is, they should decide whether or not to encode and *then* we'll worry about difficulties carrying that out. Anyway, just informing folks. I've been talking to various UTC members, and the official UTC meeting is this week or next week or something, so it will be brought up then and they'll probably have at least some sort of response after that. I'm not going to let them off the hook without at least some *sensible* answer and a path forward (and an explanation as to why the Tolkien alphabets, which apparently may also have copyright issues, are on the Roadmap, even if they aren't encoded, while pIqaD is not only not on the roadmap, but given as an example on the "Not on the Roadmap" page as something not worthy of being there.) Just FYI. ~mark

It's called "Amikumu" and will be released in 2017. The novelty about this app is that you will be able to select not just from dozens or a hundred languages, but from all languages with ISO codes (and then some more). And Klingon does have an ISO code (namely, <tlh>). So, I deem this app potential very useful to locate other Klingon speakers and learners, and also to organize events for people to practice the language. (of course, many of us are language enthusiasts as well). Maybe have a look, and if you think this is helpful, consider donating some money to them (as I did). Above I posted a link to my blog page where I wrote a longer article in Klingon about "Amikumu". And here is the direct link to the Kickstarter page: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1770123604/amikumu-the-app-to-use-lang… - André

A crucial necessity
by mayqel qunenoS 13 Nov '16

13 Nov '16

If one is to look at his dictionary, he will surely see that often, for a single klingon word there are several english ones given in the explanation of that word. example 1: {Qu'} duty, quest, mission, task, chore example 2: {vay'} somebody, something, anybody, anything, someone If we put the dictionary aside, and examine ourselves, then probably we will realize one disturbing event: Those of us, who regularly write klingon, tend unconsciously to associate such words with only one of their meanings and forget the rest. For example, I may tend to associate {Qu'}, only with "duty", and ignore the meaning of "quest". Or -even worst-, we tend to think that such words possess only one meaning. For example we tend to think that {vay'} means only "someone", forgetting its additional meaning of "something". I still remember some time ago, writing {vay'} in the context of "something", only to be instantly corrected that it means "someone". The worst mistakes take place not when you're trying to learn something, not when you consider yourself a beginner. The worst mistakes and misconceptions are settling in your mind, as soon as you believe you know something.. So, the crucial necessity we must be keeping in mind, is that just because we tend to use one word, with just one of its multiple meanings, this doesn't mean that this word doesn't have additional interpretations as well. To forget this, or even worst ignore it, is to shove down other people's throats our personal preferences, and embarass ourselves by our own persistent stubborness. qunnoH ghoghwIj HablI'vo' vIngeHta'
