Of course, /ghItlhwI'/ means "thing which prints" as much as it means "one
who prints." For clarity, my first impulse would have been /ghItlhbogh
jan/, but I like the terseness of /ghItlhwI'/. Sort of parallels /So'wI'/:
do you think of the officer whose job it is to through the cloaking device
switch, or the cloaking device itself?
