I am so happy we are getting new words for the SOURCE.  

Well, I see everyone else making up constructions.  Hamlet, for example, has
lots of non-Okrandian combinations and constructions.  I've seen numerous
references to non-canon source words such as "library, computer system,
network," etc. from other members of this listserv.  I'm just trying to stir
the pot.

Perhaps, you haven't noticed that I do not MAKE UP word stems at all.  I do
not even use {SopDaq} but use the KLI-approved {SopmeH Daq}.

And, No, I don't think it is growing fast enough.  Klingon society is highly
developed.  The technology has reached advancement.  The language needs to
reflect the society.
