OMG! Voragh, for the first time in 5 years, I have caught you in a
mistake.

You're slipping;
tugh = soon (adv) TKD , p110
tuq = tribe, house, ancestral unit (noun) KGT p228

And where, precisely do you find this specific 'Order' of precedence?
I was tasked with this recently, and tried for days to nail down a
confirmed naming convention (for honoring guests and Line members at
a Klingon Feast). All I could find were some examples.

I have the books here [FASA, all of them] and cannot find any clearly
defined lineages in them either.

Yes, I have derived a simple formula (see sig. below), but it is far
from Canon.

Would you please cite your source material for Formulae?
I have tried, and confess that I am not your clerical equal.
You have always been a great resource.

You are still  the Canon Master.

Thanks again, as always,
