Say'moHlu'meH HaH'eghlu'chugh QotnISbe'lu'. One gets pretty "soaked" by standing in the shower. That too is *HaH'egh.* /The Klingon Way/ and /Klingon for the Galactic Traveler /tell us about the negative associations Klingons have water. /KGT /also gives us *puj; bIQ rur*/weak as water./ We have Worf's expression of distaste, "Swimming is too much like bathing." On Lursa and Be'etor's bird-of-prey, Dr. Soran waved his hand in front of his face as if they smelled. Q made bathing jokes aimed at Worf. Hardly evidence that Klingons don't bathe, but clearly they don't /like/ to bathe. -- SuStel http://trimboli.name
