Klingon word: 'opuHwI' Part of speech: noun Definition: prostitute Source: qep'a' 26 [2019] _______________________________________________
(qep’a’ 2019): A slang term is {qItoy}.
Is there a pun here? I don't see one.
The 1959 film Vice Raid starred Mamie Van Doren, whose birth name was Joan Lucille *Olander*, as a prostitute. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0053418/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mamie_Van_Doren Incidentally, {qItoy} is probably a reference to the character of "Miss Kitty" from Gunsmoke (a TV show in which William Shatner also made an appearance). -- De'vID
