Re: Klingon WOTD: logh (n)
: Klingon word: logh
: Part of Speech: noun
: Definition: space
As used in canon:
logh veQDaq bachchugh, yoH 'e' toblaHbe' SuvwI'
Shooting space garbage is no test of a warrior's mettle. (ST5 notes)
HaDlu'meH, QuSlu'meH, SuDlu'meH lojmIt Da logh Hop Hut tengchaH.
vaj loghDaq lenglaHtaH Humanpu'. veH Qav 'oH logh'e'.
space station Deep Space Nine is the gateway for the exploration,
intrigue and enterprise that mark the continuation of the human
adventure into space--the final frontier. DS99
juHqo' Qo'noSvo' loghDaq lengtaHvIS tlhInganpu'
During the (aggresive) expansion of the Klingon people from their
homeworld of Kronos into space... SP1
loghDaq Suvrupbogh SuvwI'pu' chaH Hoch SuvwI'pu''e'
In space, all warriors are cold warriors.
(lit. "warriors who are ready to fight"). TKW
N.B. {logh Hop} "deep space" from SkyBox DS99. Cf. also {ngeHbej} "cosmos" and
{'u'} "universe".
{ngeHbej} "cosmos" originated in Okrand's re-analysis of a line of Klingon
dialogue which was carelessly repeated in the final cut of ST5:
vaj toDuj Daj ngeHbej DI vI'
Shooting space garbage is no test of a warrior's mettle.
("Sharpshooting of the cosmos' litter inconclusively tests a
warrior's courage.")
Okrand's original translation for the line, given above, was published in
HolQeD 8.4 along with some other Klingon lines from scenes in an earlier draft
of the script missing from the final cut.
