Klingon Word of the Day for Saturday, November 14, 2020 Klingon word: vo' Part of speech: verb Definition: propel _______________________________________________ QIStaq qul bIQtIqHomDaq 'etlhDaj vo' nuch the coward threw his sword into the fire streams of Kri'stak (PB) (KCD executive producer Keith Halper; KCD novel p.212): [Okrand's] literal translation is always skewed a bit, so if you send him "Row, row, row your boat", you'll get back "Propel, propel, propel your craft". (TKW 148): The commonly heard sendoff [{pe'vIl mu'qaDmey tIbach}] "Curse well!" — roughly comparable in usage to the Federation Standard "Good luck!" — literally means, "Shoot curses forcefully!" Curses are considered a weapon of a sort which must be propelled to their targets.
