Klingon Word of the Day for Sunday, May 13, 2018 Klingon word: ngel Part of speech: verb Definition: attract, lure Source: qepHom 2017 _______________________________________________ (MO > LLL, qepHom 2017, p.14, WRT "bait" in DSC subtitles): I think you can use either {tlhu'moH} "tempt" or {ngel} "attract, lure". In either case, I suspect you'd use the {-meH} suffix. It would be something like "...use a spaceship in order to lure/attract/tempt them." {ngelwI'} would be an attracter or a lurer, so that could be the noun "bait" in this context. Here's the finished non-canon subtitle: pa'vovo' chaH DIngelmeH, 'oH wIlo'. We use it as bait, to draw their flagship away from Pahvo. (DSC/sub "Into the Forest I Go") (Felix, 11/13/2017): Appears to mean something like lure, bait, attract, divert or draw (toward / away from). Interestingly, it's {leng} backwards, which might give some hint as to its meaning. SEE ALSO: tlhu'moH tempt (v) pon persuade, convince (v) wam hunt (v) nej look for, seek, search for (v) Sam locate [seek & find] (v) ghoch track, track down (v) ghach lurk, lie in wait, lie low (v) von trap, entrap (v) -- Voragh tlhIngan nompuq pIn'a' Ca'Non Master of the Klingons
