I recently asked `mark about this (privately) and he okayed it.

It's from HolQeD 1:3 page 9. It's a new one from Okrand.
Would people be really upset if I made a list of all the new words
from HolQeD that could be posted for newbies? I had always been
miffed when people told me I should transcribe the language tapes
myself instead of just getting someone elses copy, but then I did it.
It was a lot more instructive than I thought it would be. However,
since communication is our goal I think it would be wrong in this
case to exclude people just because they haven't bought back issues
of HolQeD.
