Please: to (a) get as full a set as possible of back issues of HolQeD, and
(b) to subscribe to get new issues of HolQeD as they are published, what do I
have to mail to who??

Please send me a copy of it also.
PS (1) A while ago there was a thread here about how to make Klingon respect
language. We have verb suffix `-neS' = respect to the listener, and {vuv} =
"he respects"; but re respect to someone mentioned: I read that in Nahuatl
(Aztec) (which Klingon imitates some features of), one way to show respect to
a man who is the subject of a verb is to put the verb in the reflexive of the
causative: in Klingon this would be e.g. {ghItlh beq} = "the crewman writes"
v. {ghItlh'eghmoH la''a'} = "the Commander causes himself to write".
PS (2): I am very sorry to have re-sent unaltered just now Roger Cheesbro
<[email protected]> 's message `betleH'; my finger slipped as I was reading it.
A translation of an expression that I saw somewhere:
yuQ petaQpu', petay'choH! -- Nerds of the world, unite!
