Not Even K'Hare is Perfect
« on: Feb 2^nd, 2005, 10:31pm »

(Please Read All)

As anyone would make a mistake, even K'Hare can.

I was looking at the Brackets today and for some time I had been curious on what the names of the Brackets meant. I still am not well versed in the Klingon Language but I have a Klingon Dictionary.

It wasn't until today that my curiosity got to best of me and I translated the names.

Apparently the Brackets are supposed to be named by color.

SuD = green, blue, yellow.
chIS = white
qIj = black

Now here is the mistake, and I can understand how it was made.

DoQ = claim (territory)
Where as
Doq = orange, red.

The one used in the name was DoQ. Grin

I have to say though. My HoD seems very happy. Grin

Interesting. Klingons have one word for blue, green, and yellow. So I suppose they use qualifiers to tell which shade they mean.

So...

"SuD Hurgh" would be 'pickle green', 'cucumber green'... or just 'dark green/blue/yellow'

Right, Tauvits? Wink

-Ing

Edit: Klingon language game: What would it mean if a group of Klingons were cheering "yay! yay!" at the tournament?

Um, maybe if they were cheering in general, but I'm talking about specifically cheering "yay!"

-Ing

Someone check my Klingon:
yay nuHeghchoHmeHwI' ghapqu'!

Edit: That is, of course, the Chang version. What I really meant was:

yay nuHeghchoHmeHwI' joqqu'!

(also added the -wI' suffix)

Good catch. The word was altered in translation.. or maybe I just speak with a bit of the lithp.
