The word for "synaesthesia"
Is it *nguDHIj* or *nguHDIj*? It's not clear from the word list. BTW, this is a condition that I have, so I was delighted when someone put it on the chabal tetlh, and delighted again when we received that word this year!
Every list I thought to check has *nguDHIj*. Where did you see nguHDIj? On 2025-07-26 13:33, James Landau via tlhIngan-Hol wrote:

That one is wrong. I suggest always assuming that the primary source is correct and secondary sources that don't match are wrong. Especially when the information is manually entered like in Lieven's wiki. If there's mistakes in qep'a' words they are normally discovered during the qep'a', where I can double check with Marc to get the correction (like with Hem having the word for seam in it spelled backwards). qurgh On Sat, Jul 26, 2025, 9:05 AM James Landau via tlhIngan-Hol < tlhingan-hol@lists.kli.org> wrote:
The spelling *nguHDIj* is at our wiki:

In this case, I didn't know how the word for "synaesthesia" was spelt in the booklet, because a PDF of the booklet has not been uploaded onto the wiki. All I saw was the list of qep'a' 32 words (where it was spelt *nguDHIj*) and the entry page itself at the wiki (where it was spelt *nguHDIj*).

Oh, weird. I checked the main list in which the word is correct, but wrongly linked. I'll get it corrected. On 2025-07-26 16:29, James Landau via tlhIngan-Hol wrote:

The new words are on the KLI website. This is the source you should be going to. I posted the link to this list a few days back. I don't post images from the PDF version on the website anymore as people complained they weren't useful. The request was for a HTML table, which is what I post now. I use the same spreadsheet to build both the program and that table. This makes it easier for people to just import it into their databases (which is what I do for my personal Klingon sites). The PDF of the program that is shared with online attendees should not be posted to the wiki. qurgh On Sat, Jul 26, 2025, 10:29 AM James Landau <savegraduation@yahoo.com> wrote:
