Very nice descriptions. I'm glad they are not being applied to me.

<vuS> means "limit" rather than "be limited", so this needs to be
<vuSbe'lu'bogh Hal>.

That would cause a different kind of itch . . .

How about <ghIchwIj berghmoHchu' tIvam>. I think anything beyond that for a
description of allergies would get long and unwieldy, using technical terms
we don't have. You can always say <*allergy vISIQ> as well.

Your grasp of Klingon grammar has improved immensely in the last two
