The question was what is the difference between a lake and an ocean? How would one translate "sea"? Maltz said: sea is {bIQ'a'}. — A lake (ngeng) is completely surrounded by land. An ocean (bIQ'a') is a large expanse of water which may be connected to one or more other bIQ'a'mey, including smaller ones often called "seas" in English. (qepHom 2023, p. 53) Additionaly, the Black Sea was translated as {bIQ'a' qIj}. Klingon Word Wiki: https://klingon.wiki/Word/bIQ-a- -- Lieven L.
