Re: KLBC two semi-old posts to be critiqued please

: Also, what's the difference between nuv & ghot?
Here's how the two words have been used by Okrand:
{nuv} person (humanoid)
butlh ghajbogh nuv'e' yIHo'
Admire the person with dirt under his fingernails. TKW
{ghot} person (humanoid)
ghotpu' tamey
Personnel Files (ST:Communicator)
reH tay' ghot tuqDaj je
One is always of his tribe.
("A person and his house are always together.") TKW
ghotvam Ho'lu'. 'ej muSlu'.
A man to admire... and hate. ST5 (MO notes)
wey jolpat: wa' (jav ghotpu')
Personnel Transporter - 1 (6 Man) [BoP Poster]
I can't see any difference between the two, other than the fact that Okrand
uses {ghot} more often. Until Maltz explains the difference, I'd just pick
one and use it. Personally, I'd use {ghot}.
