Klingon WOTD: SaQ (verb)
This is the Klingon Word Of The Day for Wednesday, August 2, 2006.
Category: General
Klingon word: SaQ
Part of Speech: verb
Definition: cry
Source: TKD (107 KE, 127 EK)
Swedish: gråta
Additional Notes:
HolQeD 12:4, p. 8: "Maltz's Reward: Part III." For Klingons, even though there is a word for "cry" ({SaQ}), there is no word for "tear" or "tears," undoubtedly because Klingons have no tear ducts. The only thing Maltz could think of that eyes do from time to time is "redden" ({DoqchoH}, literally, "become red" or "change to red").
