Re: Klingon WOTD: wornagh (n)



: Klingon word:   wornagh
: Part of Speech: noun
: Definition:     [warnog]
: 
: Additional Notes:
: The name of a drink, Klingon ale.  Also in KGT, KCD.

Okrand has never used {wornagh} in a sentence, but we do have a cultural note
on ale from Klingon for the Galactic Traveller (p.98f):

   Unless specified further, {HIq HIvje'} ("liquor glass") usually
   means a tankard or stein for beer or ale. A {bal} is any bottle
   or jug used to store liquid... Ale is often stored in a large vat
   ({qegh}) rather than in a {bal}.
