A friend of mine, who occasionally listens to me babble on about Klingon, has
just detected an Okrandian pun (or, at least, what seems to be one). Has
anyone ever nocited this one before?
English: loam (n) a loose soil composed of clay and sand, esp. a kind
containing organic matter and of great fertility.
Etc.
Klingon:
lom (n) corpse
lam (n) dirt
lam (v) be dirty
Coincidence? Wrong? Really cool?
