Re: word histories

Shane MiQogh ([email protected])



perhaps, we're not supposed to knwo what is a pun or not. perhaps if the KLI has meetings with okrand as often as it claims, perhaps some one could just ask him for a list.

I have the same question:

Do you see this "inside the game", as in "the klingons adapted the word from
the terran word X", or would you like to know how marc okrand found the
words? That's sometimes difficult to make a difference between a "pun", that
is a joke (-->qul) and a real story which could be based on something
without being funny (like {na'} obviously based on "Na")
