Klingon Word of the Day for Sunday, July 05, 2026 Klingon word: vabDot Part of speech: adverb Definition: moreover, in addition, even, including, also Source: Klingon Monopoly, published 1 November 2011 _______________________________________________ Qo'noS romuluS je boSuqlaH. vabDot tera' Qejbogh DIvI' ram boSuqlaH. Kronos, Romulus and even the puny Federation's precious Earth, are all up for grabs. (MKE ) vabDot Sovbe' targhwIj (qep'a' 2018 Secrecy Proverb: "The usual translation is 'Even my targ won't know!" It's more literally 'in addition, my targ will not know', with an assumed reference to others not knowing in the first place." (janSIy, 8/06/2018]) (qepHom 2017): {vabDot} means something like moreover, furthermore, even. "Even" is a good English translation of {vabDot} in a number of contexts. It's not the only definition of [vabDot], but I think it's okay as part of the definition. But there's a little more to it than that. It's used to say that something is unexpected or surprising or counterintuitive, not just additional. For something that's just additional, you'd probably use {je} also. Grammatically, {vabDot} is considered an adverbial. SEE ALSO: tlhoS almost, nearly, virtually, not quite, barely (adv) -- Voragh Ca'Non Master of the Klingons
