The Ranks of K'Hare
« on: Feb 13^th, 2005, 12:25am »

Hmmm...

'ech

and

tolth

I think K'Hare having a Rank idenity crises. Can't seem to get that Rank right.

Pehaps to iliminate the confusion should call him tIn yIH Grin

See give him new name and not have to worry any more...

Hhehe... I am daring... Heres a Challenge to see who first one is to translate that... I must say I doubt it will be forgotten...

Grin

(Just so know, I am aware that tolth is miss spelling of totlh)

Having Fun here Grin

There's a significant difference in Klingon... Just like how So'l is the name of the student while Sol means 'to quarrel'. But I can see tIn yIH - he does give out those yIH van'a'mey, after all. -Ing

Actualy according to several sites...

http://www.geocities.com/klingon_embassy/ranks

http://www.klingonempire.org/contentid-9.html

http://www.startrekpbem.net/index.php?action=rankKlingon

http://www.geocities.com/mfvkala/ranks.htm

Including my Klignon Dictionary at Home... totlh is correct spelling, not totlh' Grin

I was already aware of the use of ' as a seperate letter.

No harm done though. Knew you would be first to respond Ing Grin

totlh is the correct spelling.

But be'thal called him a tolth', not a tolth.

tolth' is actually not a word in Klingon, they have no character that is represented with our 'h'. toltH' would be a word, though.

totlh is actually a 3-letter word in Klingon, we use the combination tlh to represent a single Klingon character. If you go back a bit over a year on the KDB boards, you'll see a discussion about events on "Section tlh". Which would be just like us saying "Section C", only with a Klingon letter.

On the other hand, there is also no Klingon character which is properly represented in our alphabet using the letter k, or K for that matter.

Which means all those names K'Hare, K'rahl, m'rek, K'tar, K'megh, K'grath, K'tanna, Khoal, and so on are all incorrect Klingon as well. Klingon has several different sounds that are similar to the english K, but they are represented by q or Q, with somewhat less similar sounds being represented by gh, tlh, and H.

So in proper Klingon they should be spelled with one of those instead of a K. For example, Khitomer in Klingon is QI'tomer. And 'Klingon' in Klingon is tlhIngan.

-Ing

Edit: Then again, it was K'Hare that said, "Now I am a tolth..." without the break character ('). So that's three different ranks he's been called.

Don't you people have anything better to do?

I am picking on ta'pez because he can't ever get my rank right... and he is probably doing it on purpose because he thinks it is funny.

The rank set that matters to any BF character is the one on the Bravofleet site. Go to the database, look up Klingons and check the bottom of the page.

And K'Hare's name, in the BF records is K'Hare, despite the fact that it isn't a Klingon name. That isn't a mistake. Like many Klingons his name in the federation records is one that flatheads would find easier to say and spell.

Like his House, this is the first time in three years anyone has mentioned this little detail. Maybe someday you will learn how to spell his name in Klingon, if you are worthy to know it.

And m'rek, I believe you meant to say yIH tIn but yIH tInqu' would better fit your attempt, you nach chImqu' tIn.

Aye, agree, M'Rek not Klingon spelling either and is ment to be a Klingon name not Hirogen.

Lets see if I can do my best... q'Har seems close if I am pronouncing the name right...

Am I right?

Hmmmm... nach chImqu' tIn does sorta fit at times... Grin

But you'll be amazed how litle space there is when comes to combat hehe..

Of course with as many K'Hare's that have been running around, can't completely disagree with yIH tInqu' Hehehe... Grin

Actualy Kurn and Km'tar are just the Terran spelling of the names. There is no K in the Klingon alphabet. There is Q , q, which can sound simular to a K. Think H does to but can't remeber for sure there right now.

wo'rIv, son of mogh liked to study tlhIngan operas such as 'aqtu' and mellota' and plays written by SeQpIr as well as the history of such federation heroes as qerq and janluq pIqarD, both captains of the 'entepray' and ghawran and qeylIS'e' lIjlaHbe'bogh vay'.

Just to give you some examples. I would spell his brother's name as qern but it could vary slightly depending on the correct pronunciation.

And ness, it isn't just Dan that responds to you.

K'rahl is correctly written Q'ral. I know that and so should the other senior Klingons. I may have said this before on KDB Forum or BF Forum, not sure.

Basicly the name is pronounced similarly to the word kraal, look it up in a dictionary. Real Earth word. The K has a guteral after sound and is shown as Q'. The r is similar to the English pronunciation. The a is slightly longer than average a sounds in English but is exactly the same as the sound in the word psalm, I added the h to approximate it the easiest.

So basicly K'rahl is just an easy representation for ease of reading. I don't expect everyone to learn the Klingon alphabet just to say my name.

I have stopped doing this for some characters. My dead older brother Q'Qan for example. Shocking name for terang'anpu' to struggle with but the closest approximation was K'kan anway.

K'rahl? Hehe well hope you are talking to him instead.

Still, I guess I am not completely knowledgable about the different names for the different positions in the house. I know Kral took over being the head the House of Mok after his father, uncle, and several cousins were lost in the war.

Unlike Ta'pez, Kral is not an adopted son, but was in line for leading the house threw blood relationship. Being the natural son of his Father.

I am not sure what you would count that. I always thought the posoitons were about the same but am welcome to being corrected and to learn more. Thanks

In my view, and this is my opinion, not canon, the Lords are the most powerful of the Klingons, the most noble in the Imperial sense. Specifically, the Houses who have a Klingon on the High Council or some other similar definition.

So K'rahl, House K'brd'lck is 3rd Lord because his House has council influence. House Chang has had members on the Council so they are Imperial.

But a House from some random, even if powerful House, like say House DarQ don't have Lords.

Note that it is canon, but subtle that there is a pin you can where if you were born on the homeworld. So K'rahl has it, but not his two kids, even though they are all Imperial.

K'Hare knows me well Kral and would not likely mistake the one for the other.

I must concur with him in much of what he says here.

Ia'pez is indeed a Lord. The question of his parents is completely imaterial. He is the leader of an Imperial House. When he was adopted by Chang the Younger he became an Imperial. That he was not of the same blood matters nothing.

Also as stated by K'Hare, my children were not born on Qo'noS yet they are still Imperial.

I am Third Lord of the House of K'brd'Lok. My Grandsire, K'Trol is First Lord and my Father, Kur'rk is Second Lord. This does not make succesion automatic, another could challenge for a place in the heirachy if they thought they were truly better suited.

Some others may claim to be Imperial, indeed they may claim to be Lords. However those of us who correctly hold those positions in society can tell the genuine from the fraud.

Whether I would approve or not, Ta'pez is a Lord... Just do not hold your breath waiting for me to address him as such, unless by title alone.

We are all holding our breath waiting for K'rahl to adopt me and make me his heir, right?
