I can't understand why there isn't a klingon word for "arrow".
How is it possible, that the almighty warrior race never invented arrows or apparently never came to know them ?
I need to return the question: Have you ever seen a Klingon on screen shooting arrows? :-) Okay, staying in the game, I think that Klingons certainly enjoy close contct combat. Whe know they have lots of swords, knives, axes etc. They have spears, and even a spear throwing device, which still does not go sofar as an arrow goes. Arrows are good for long distance fights. I think that's just not the Klingon way of fighting. Perhaps someone knows more about that, because I'm usually more into grammar than culture. -- Lieven L.
