Klingon word: 'ampaS Part of speech: noun Definition: academy, specialized school Source: KGT _______________________________________________ AFAIK never used in a sentence. (HQ 4.4:11): The most general word for school (a place for learning) is {DuSaQ}. A specialized school, perhaps translatable as academy", is {'ampaS}. An organization dedicated to scholastic pursuits or research is a {yejHaD} "institute" or "institution" or a {yej'an} "society". The distinction between {yejHaD} and {yej'an} is not clear, though the former is usually--but not always--used for larger organizations.
