Re: Renegade



: I very urgently need a translation for "renegade".
: That's what I found:
: 	{bIvwI'} - someone who breaks rules
: 	{cheHwI'} - someone who defects
: 	{matlhHa'wI'} - someone who is disloyal
: 	{Duj ngaDHa'} - person who is wildly irresponsible, out of control,
: 		undisciplined (KGT)
: Which ones do you believe are best?
: 
:   muHwI'

Best for what?  What's the context?  We can help best if you give us the
sentence you're trying to translate and not just isolated words.

{lotlhwI'} "rebel" (n) may do.  Other options are "traitor", either
{maghwI'} "one who betrays (someone)" or {'urwI'} "one who commits treason
(against the state)" or the slang term {bolwI'} from KGT; *{HeSwI'}
"criminal, one who commits a crime"; *{qIQwI'} "mutineer, one who
mutinies"; *{Daw'wI'} "revolutionary (?), one who revolts".
