Erich Schneider says:
: With respect to the "masculine/feminine" thing:
:
: One interesting thing I noted is that the word for "to marry" is
: different for males and females. ("Saw" for males, "nay" for females.)
: I wonder where this comes from?
A similar situation exists in Russian, but there, the words are derived from
those for "husband" (for women) and "wife" (for men), which does not seem to be
the case in Klingon.
