SKI: Mahoun insists that vajar used a device on him before
transferring him, but vajar says vajar he remembers differently.

[158] I should have kept a list of all the options I tried for
describing a hood!
[244] By now you know why I was laughing when vajar sized up qImyal
and wondered if she had a parmaqqay on board, and ghunchu'wI' asked,
"be' ror maS'a' vajar?" be' maS vajar neH!
[245] Now when you saw Mossam identify it, she caled it a tuQDoq,
because you were seeing the Klingon translation of the Yelwitian
conversation and Mossam used the correct Yelwitian term that she
learned in her security training. But Mahoun heard it in Yelwitian
and doesn't know the Klingon word, so he's translating the Yelwitian
term literally. Why yes I DO pay too much attention to languages. My
next story will take place entirely in Klingon. But I'll probably
still find a way to confuse myself.
