{Hergh ngevwI'} refers to the person who sells, or to the store which sells ? Or both ?
De'vID:
It refers to the person. In the TalkNow! Klingon softwhere {ngevwI'} and {Hergh ngevwI'} are used, the pronoun {ghaH} is used.
But see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metonymy (or maybe https://el.wikipedia.org/wiki/Μετωνυμία is more appropriate)
nuqDaq ghaH Hergh ngevwI''e' Where is the chemist? (TNK) Another example from TalkNow! is: nuqDaq ghaH ngevwI''e' Where is the shop? (TNK) On the other hand a {Hergh QaywI'} "pneumatic hypo" (also called a hypospray and hyposyringe in Trek) is a medical device, lit. "thing which transfers medicine". -- Voragh tlhIngan ghantoH pIn'a' Ca'Non Master of the Klingons
