I might have mentioned in a discussion so it might have been buried:
AFAIK we do have words that are somewhat related, but not exactly what you're seeking:
rhythm (e.g drum-beat) (n)
wab sound, noise (n) QoQ music (n) (HQ 2.4): meaning musical sound, whether or not a Klingon voice is participating in producing this sound moq beat (something with an implement) (v) -- which is specifically associated with music: (KGT 74-75): The general term for a percussion instrument of any kind is {'In}. [...] Other members of this group of instruments are hit with a stick of some kind. [...] To strike the instrument with a stick is to {moq} ("beat") the instrument.
Just needed something for: shake/vibrate (v)
Qom experience an earthquake/tremor, tremble (v) Qom Qu' The mission experiences a tremor. KGT Qom He The route experiences a tremor. KGT Qompu' Duj The ship has experienced a tremor. KGT Qombe'! nISbe' jevwI', 'ej not ruS baq. That looks on tempests and is never shaken. [lit. "It does not tremble! The storm does not disrupt it, and it never terminates the bond."] (Sonnet 116) joq flap, flutter, wave, beat (heart) (v) vIH move, be in motion (v) Until we learn otherwise, I would (metaphorically?) use {Qom} for big, violent shaking and {joq} for smaller-scale vibrations or throbbing. -- Voragh tlhIngan ghantoH pIn'a' Ca'Non Master of the Klingons _______________________________________________ tlhIngan-Hol mailing list tlhIngan-Hol@lists.kli.org http://lists.kli.org/listinfo.cgi/tlhingan-hol-kli.org
