Another random thought...
I recall a ST:TNG episode entitled "Loud as a Whisper" (I think) where it is
mentioned that Riva, the mediator, gave Klingons the word 'peacemaker'. I
don't have the episode info here, but I recall that the Klingons had no such
word before that moment.
Are we to assume, then, that the construction <rojwI'> was never uttered
before Riva? Or did he come up with a new word? Or - did the Oxford Klingon
Dictionary not include <rojwI'> as a separate lexical unit before Riva's
intervention?
