'amerI'qa' ‘ev chan ‘ev North America (GN) (qepHom 2016)
'amerI'qa' tIng chan tIng South America (GN) (qepHom 2016)
I don't recall if anyone has pointed this out before, but does anyone else find these backwards? Why isn't it {'ev chan 'ev 'amerI'qa'} and {tIng chan tIng 'amerI'qa'}? I'm probably just forgetting some rule that applies only to the compass directions.
I wonder how a Klingon would then render "the American South" (i.e., the southern United States, a geographic and cultural region to the south of the country)? Ditto "the American North".
