Klingon Word of the Day for Tuesday, February 28, 2023
Klingon word: qID Part of speech: noun Definition: joke
... The canon word for joke is {qID}. Okrand explained the difference: (qepHom 2022 booklet p. 17) Often interchangeable, but generally speaking, if the narrative wasn't particularly funny until the last line, that would be a {qID} while a {lut tlhaQ} is a narrative that's funny, at least sporadically, throughout. Note that to play a practical joke on someone, to trick on someone, is not {qID} (the verb meaning "joke"). It's {chem} "prank."
