PK curse:
"You belong in a black hole in the netherworld."
{ghe''orDaq luSpet 'oH DaqlIj'e'.}
This can also be translated as
"In the netherworld your place is a black hole." (i.e., your *proper* place).
There is no connection in the Klingon between {ghe''orDaq} and {luSpet}.
I brought up this very question last year on this list, and somebody on this
list explained it me in much the same way, and now I'm convinced. I haven't
been able to find the messages in the archive though.
