Re: [tlhIngan Hol] Klingon food vocabulary
From: "Lieven L. Litaer" <levinius@gmx.de>>Subject: Re: [tlhIngan Hol] Klingon food vocabulary>>Yes, it's true that I rearranged the page a little, and removed the>animal words, because it made the list too long creating double entries with the page "animals".
Since you explained after editing that animal words were not being included because the Klingons considered all non-sapient animal species to be food, I understood that. It was just the fruit words. (I never knew that a Klingon would consider any animal to be food!)
Removing the cherry was not intentional. While I was editing, I got an error message, so some of my changes were not saved. I will add them later, or you can. As you find the time.
I didn't know about the error message you got, so thanks for explaining. I see most of the fruit words were returned, although you seem to have forgotten two fruits from the last qep'a': *raS'IS moQ nah* and *qaq naH*. I've added both words back in. Now, though, we have a new problem. The header is "Fruit and vegetables", but we have some TalkNow words, like cola and pizza, that aren't fruit and vegetables. (Also paSta'/pasta in the final section of "Terran fruit and vegetables".) I really don't know what to do with these words. I'll have to think about it awhile.

I'm not sure where this information comes from, bur rgarding the fact that the word {Ha'DIbaH} means both "meat" and "animal"...

You're welcome to add anything I missed. That's the purpose of a wiki.

Change it as you think it makes sense. I think it's more useful to sort them by topic than by source. -- Lieven L. Litaer aka the "Klingon Teacher from Germany" http://www.tlhInganHol.com http://klingon.wiki/En/FoodVocabulary
