<p>I have in my notes that {warjun} is a reference to two characters from a certain television show (you can figure it out yourself).&nbsp; I also have a note under {tlher} that this is a reference that's somehow related.&nbsp; I presume that this is the name &quot;Claire&quot;,
 but I know next to nothing about the show, so I don't know who &quot;Claire&quot; might be.&nbsp; Someone must have told me that it was a pun at some point, but I neglected to make a clearer note at the time.&nbsp; Does anyone know the pun behind {tlher}?</p>
<p>p.s. In the sentence {A B je chaH C D je'e'}, did I put the {'e'} in the right place?&nbsp; Or should it have been {A B je chaH C'e' D'e' je}?</p>
<p>p.p.s. I like {mu' qID} &quot;word joke&quot; for &quot;pun&quot;, though I suppose it really should be {qID mu'} &quot;joke word&quot;.&nbsp;&nbsp; There's a kind of parallelism with {mu'qaD}.</p>
