Re: some thing funny
: ok so "Saw" means marry (husband does this)(v), and ton'Saw means Klingon
: fighting. I thought that was funny, but can "ton'" stand alone, and if so
: what does it mean
*{ton} has no independent meaning that we know of and doesn't appear in any
other word that I can find.
BTW, watch your spelling. The apostrophe in {tonSaw'} is at the end, not the
middle. {Saw} "marry" does not end in an apostrophe. The two words have no
etymological connection AFAIK.
But... there is a verb {Saw'} meaning "have a depth of" listed in KGT.
Probably no connection to {tonSaw'}, however.
