The verb parHa' (like)... what is that?
is it used thusly:
"I like you, Terran!"
{parHa'} has the above meaning. You'll notice that it actually is the verb
{par} ("dislike") plus the verb suffix {-Ha'}. So it literally means
something such as "dis-dislike". A few simple examples:
{yuch parHa' tlhIngan} "The Klingon likes chocolate."
{yIH par tlhIngan} "The Klingon dislikes the tribble."
or thus:
"Your cloak is like mine!"
For this second meaning of "like", we can use the verb {rur} ("resemble").
For example:
{tar rur Sojvam} "This food is like poison!" or literally "This food
resembles poison."
Qapla'!
