Klingon WOTD: puq Hol (n)



This is the Klingon Word Of The Day for Saturday, April 20, 2002.

Klingon word:   puq Hol
Part of Speech: noun
Definition:     baby talk

Additional Notes:
KGT p. 34.  Using {puq Hol} to an adult is highly insulting and degrading.  Visitors from other cultures should be aware that this proscription applies to the interaction between mates and potential mates.  Unlike in some other places in the galaxy, use of {puq Hol} is not a part of any Klingon courting ritual, nor is it a sign of affection between two adults.
