thank you voragh for these canon examples ! I would like to ask though, something that I noticed..
HoSHal ghajchugh vay', mI' naghmey tIronmoH. wa'maHlogh boq'egh mI' naghmey; chen qav'ap. ghajwI'vaD qav'ap yIDIl.
the {wa'maHlogh boq'egh mI' naghmey}, means "roll the dice once" ?
pIraqSIS HoS waw' ghajlu'chugh, loSlogh boq'egh mI' naghmey mI'; chen qav'ap
what does the {loSlogh boq'egh mI' naghmey mI'} actually mean ? "roll the dice four times" ? and why do we have the second {mI'} (after the {naghmey}) ?
Duj ghajchugh vay', cha'logh boq'egh qav'ap motlh; chen qav'ap le'. ghajwI'vaD qav'ap le' yIDIl.
the {cha'logh boq'egh qav'ap motlh} means "the usual price is doubled" ? I read the given english translation, but I just want to be sure, that I understand this correctly. mayqel qunnoq On Wed, Jun 29, 2016 at 5:35 PM, Steven Boozer <sboozer@uchicago.edu> wrote:

"...[A]nd nobody lacks payment money." That doesn't seem to fit the tone of your message. Did you choose the wrong word, or leave off a negation
FYI mayqel, in addition to {DIlmeH Huch}:

there's a noun from Klingon Monopoly (MKE): {qav'ap} "value, rent, sum, etc." The basic idea seems to be a specific amount of money owed or agreed upon:
voHDajbo' qav'ap mortgage value MKE
HoSHal ghajchugh vay', mI' naghmey tIronmoH. wa'maHlogh boq'egh mI' naghmey; chen qav'ap. ghajwI'vaD qav'ap yIDIl. If [energy source is] owned, throw dice and pay owner a total ten times amount shown. MKE
pIraqSIS HoS waw' ghajlu'chugh, loSlogh boq'egh mI' naghmey mI'; chen qav'ap If Praxis Energy Facility is owned, rent is 4 times amount shown on dice. MKE
Duj ghajchugh vay', cha'logh boq'egh qav'ap motlh; chen qav'ap le'. ghajwI'vaD qav'ap le' yIDIl. If [ship is] owned, pay owner twice the rental to which they are otherwise entitled. MKE
Notice the idiom:
ghajwI'vaD qav'ap yIDIl pay owner the amount (of money)
ghajwI'vaD qav'ap le' yIDIl pay owner the special amount (of money)
Hmm... What makes a {qav'ap} special {le'}? Maybe "specific amount"??
Another new economics noun from qepHom 2015 is {ghogh'ot}:
(MO > Lieven (10/29/2015)): Here are some more words related to paper: a letter, that is a message written on a sheet of paper and sent to someone is a {nav QIn} ... A bill, a payment request, something you must pay, is a {ghogh'ot}.
