Until we Okrand gives us the correct spelling of Mok'bara, couldn't
Mr. Warren use tonSaw' from HolQeD 1:3? What is the connection
between these two terms? Is tonSaw' the term for martial arts and
Mok'bara a specific type (tai chi)? I don't know.... But IMHO I would use
tonsaw' if you're putting it in a tlhIngan Hol sentance.
