Klingon word: tetlh Part of speech: verb Definition: roll Source: tlhIngan-Hol Mailing List - De'vID - 01 March 2019 _______________________________________________
(De’vID < MO, 3/01/2019: (“down a hill like a log”)
From that message: -------------------------------- [De'vID]: Can {ron} be used for people, such as in martial arts or gymnastics? [Okrand]: Yes... IF it means that the person is rolling haphazardly. If the person is doing a somersault (rolling forwards or backwards in a reasonably controlled manner), the verb is {Hay}. If the person is rolling down a hill as if he/she were a log, the verb is {tetlh} (related to the noun meaning "scroll," though it's not used for scrolls... unless a scroll is rolling down a hill). -------------------------------- Archived at the Klingon Language Wiki: http://klingon.wiki/En/Movements and http://klingon.wiki/Word/Tetlh -- Lieven L.
