qoror here. I have a slight dilemma. Recently on this list, when I
needed to write "Conversational Klingon" in tlhIngan Hol, I chose
"jatlhchuqghachvaD tlhIngan Hol," or, for those of you who are lazy, "Klingon
for Conversation." But "jatlhchuqghach" "conversation" sprang in my head so
quickly that I have suspicions that I actually didn't make it up. Tell me, did
anyone use that word before on this list? If I saw it before, it might have
popped it my head and me thinking it was my own invention. Tell me!
By the way, -egh and -chuq are very good words for -ghach. How about another
interesting one that I -know- I thought up? "ghob'eghghach" "civil war."
