Klingon Word of the Day for Thursday, January 24, 2019 Klingon word: tlhu' Part of speech: verb Definition: be tempted _______________________________________________ (MO > LL, qepHom 2017, p.14 WRT "bait" in DSC subtitles): I think you can use either {tlhu'moH} "tempt" or {ngel} "attract, lure". In either case, I suspect you'd use the {-meH} suffix. It would be something like "use a spaceship in order to lure/attract/tempt them." {ngelwI'} would be an attracter or a lurer, so that could be the noun bait in this context. That DSC line Okrand's referring to may be this one from "Into the Forest I Go": pa'vovo' chaH DIngelmeH, 'oH wIlo'. We use it as bait, to draw their flagship away from Pahvo.
