If 'IH is be beautiful, then 'IHqu' would be something like be incredibly gorgeous. Is this perhaps an exaggeration? I've noticed that people seem to always put -qu' on 'IH as if it were needed to mean beautiful. It isn't. Some days ago I asked how I could say in Klingon "embellish" with the meaning of making something beautiful more beautiful, rather than making something that isn't beautiful, beautiful. You proposed *'IHqu'choHmoH*, but maybe it doesn't work in this context. Actually, at first I wanted to speak about decorating our cities, so I wanted to express that our cities are already beautiful, but we make them more beautiful at Christmas (not that they are not beautiful and become beautiful). Then I omitted this part and I only wrote about decorating homes. Probably, speaking about homes, *'IHchoHmoH* would have been enough?
If you want to talk about them becoming beautiful, use *'IHchoHmoH.*//If you want to talk about them becoming even more beautiful, or becoming stunning, use *'IHqu'choHmoH.* -- SuStel http://trimboli.name
