Hi,

{meqHoD} is "bypass", since it was clarified that the Klingon phrase actually is just "waveform bypass conduit". Maltz said that he preferred that over the version that had "axis" like the book.

So the book is called "Haynes Bird of Prey Workshop Owner's Manual", you can find it on Amazon and other online stores. It has mostly English lists of BoP parts and longer explanations on how the ships are constructed on how they work. These Klingon words didn't appear in the book, instead, I asked Okrand if Maltz happend to know how any of them were translated. As far as I know, they haven't been released in any qepHom previously. They don't have official glosses either, so we have to deduce what the new words means from the phrases.

Incidentially, these phrases appeared in the Star Trek: Picard season 3 end credits, in which they were so blurred that the Klingon words were very hard to read.

Thanks for forwarding these to the List.  Here are some quick vocabulary observations.

 

New nomina agentis from existing verbs:

 

{lISwI’} “conditioner” from {lIS} “adjust, moderate” (v)

{chungwI’} “accelerator” from {chung} “accelerate” (v)

{tlhuDwI’} “emitter” from {tlhuD} “emit (energy, radiation)” (v)

{HISmoHwI’} “compressor” from {HIS} “be compressed” (v)

 

Expansions/new glosses for existing nouns:

 

{yIb} “inlet” from {yIb} “vent” (n)

{yu’egh} “waveform” from {yu’egh} “wave” (n)

 

And two completely new words (to me):

 

{meqHoD} “bypass” or “axis”? (n)

{SIl} “divert” (v) - which produces {SIlwI’} “diverter” (n)

 

Have these two appeared in recent qep’a’mey/qepHommey?

 

What exactly is the “Bird of Prey Workshop Owner's Manual”?  It supplements nicely the {tlhIngan toQDuj 'ay'mey tetlh} “Klingon Bird of Prey Technical Callouts” poster.

Hello! Here is some information I have acquired from Maltz.


At the qep'a', I took the Cloaking Device phrases from the Bird of Prey Workshop Owner's Manual and presented those to Okrand. Okrand provided me with these translations (for some he did not have a translation as they were not really parts of the cloaking device according to Maltz):



  1. Frequency Conditioner Inlet: Se’ lISwI’ yIb
  2. Frequency Conditioner: Se’ lISwI’
  3. Blast Debris Shield: DI yoD
  4. First-stage Teleport Waveform Accelerator: yu’egh chungwI’ wa’ [This is actually “primary waveform accelerator”]
  5. Axial Waveform Bypass Conduit: yu’egh meqHoD ’och [This is actually just “waveform bypass conduit”]
  6. Photon Spill Window: ’otlh tlhuDmeH Qorwagh
  7. Second-stage Teleport Waveform Accelerator: yu’egh chungwI’ cha’ [This is actually “secondary waveform accelerator”]
  8. Shield Energy Diverter: botjan HoS SIlwI’
  9. Diverter Ion Sensor: SIlwI’ tat noch
  10. Cloaking Field Emitter Monitor: So’chem tlhuDwI’ jIHwI’
  11. Emitter Waveform Compressor: tlhuDwI’ yu’egh HISmoHwI’
  12. Cloaking Field Emitter: So’chem tlhuDwI’
  13. Structural Support Frames: qal’aqmey
