I have recently noticed that we have a handful of words like {DIr QanwI' taS}. When I wondered if this shouldn't be {DIr QanneH taS} I noticed that this word {taS} is added as an apposition (is that the right word?) making clear that this is for instance not some other kind of {DIr QanwI'}. This theory is also confirmed in the word {wab labwI' jan} where {jan} is added to clarify that this is not a "radio station" as the institution, but it's a device - a wab labwI' device. Now, when I tried to search for similar words, I noticed that not all of the verb-wI'+noun combinations are appositions. For instance, {bIQ ghaywI' pa'} is the "room of the shower"; It does not mean that there are different kinds of {bIQ ghaywI'} Do I see this correctly? What are your lingustic comments on this? If anyone likes to make additions to the list, see http://www.klingonwiki.net/En/Apposition -- Lieven L. Litaer aka the "Klingon Teacher from Germany" http://www.klingonisch.de
