Re: [Tlhingan-hol] Ultralingua klingon app

<div dir="ltr">That&#39;s right, I provided the word list as well as information on synonyms/antonyms, related words, and other lexicographic data.  I started with the lexicon I had developed for pojwI&#39;, updated it to include new words that came out since I stopped maintaining pojwI&#39;, and sent the result to them.  They then took my materials and adjusted it to work in their application.  I provided some feedback and answered some questions, but most of my contribution was in the materials.  I&#39;m not sure what additional data or sources they may have consulted.<div>

Pretty sure it&#39;s no longer updated, though.<br>

<br>
I remember that it included the word {va&#39;nuch}, which first appeared in HolQeD 13:1(2004) - <a href="http://klingonska.org/canon/search/?file=2004-03-holqed-13-1.txt&amp;get=source"; target="_blank">http://klingonska.org/canon/search/?file=2004-03-holqed-13-1.txt&amp;get=source</a>.<br>

<br>
I bought it, and thought it was great. However, it disappeared once when I updated iOS, and it&#39;s no longer available here, so I can&#39;t re-download it.<br>

&gt; There is no facility that I can find to add new words, nor are there<br>
&gt; any citations of sources<br>
<br>
I imagine the only sources that Simon &amp; Schuster care about, or are even<br>
aware of, are THE KLINGON DICTIONARY and KLINGON FOR THE GALACTIC<br>
TRAVELER. They would simply have plugged in the word-lists. (I haven&#39;t<br>
downloaded the demo.)<br>
