maj. time for the next question:
if instead of the: {Daq HopHa’Daq qa’chaj nejlI’ qotar Qempa’QeH je} we had the: {Daq Hopbe’Daq qa’chaj nejlI’ qotar Qempa’QeH je}
would there be any difference in meaning ? to me the {Daq Hopbe’} sounds like "a not far location", while the {Daq HopHa'} sounds like "a misfar location" (whatever the ghe''or this may mean..)
I think *Hopbe'* means /not far, but not necessarily close either, though it could be,/ while *HopHa'* means /the opposite of far./ The English /not far,/ on the other hand, carries a connotation of /near/ that Klingon *Hopbe'* does not. -- SuStel http://trimboli.name
