Klingon word: qanwI' Part of speech: noun Definition: fourth finger, little finger Source: HQ:v10n2p7 _______________________________________________ Nomen agentis of {qan} "use the pinkie (little finger)". (HQ 10.2:9): In addition to {qan} "use the little finger, use the pinkie", there is another verb {qan} meaning "be old (not young)". No doubt because of this resemblance, when one points at someone using the little finger, or when one remarks on this pointing, the pointer is making a comment on the age of the person being pointed to. qI'empeqDaq jIqan (I think that) K'mpec is old.
