Re: Klingon WOTD: HIj (v)
: Klingon word: HIj
: Part of Speech: verb
: Definition: deliver, transport goods
: Additional Notes: TKD Addendum
As used in canon (sort of):
rura' penteDaq Soj Doch <yuS?> vIqIch.
We is condemning food...things and supplies to Rura Penthe. ST6
N.B. This is Uhura's mangled, error-filled Klingon response to Morska outpost's
routine inquiry, {nuqDaq ghoS?}. Notice she said {vIqIch} "condemn" for
{vIHIj}. Also, the subtitle refers to "we", but she pretty clearly (to me)
says "vI-".
yIHmey DaHIj'a'?
Are you transporting tribbles?
ghobe', yIHmey vIHIjbe'.
No, I'm not transporting tribbles. CK
: See also {lup}.
{lup} "transport" - presumably people. A {lupDujHom} is a shuttlecraft, a
{lupwI'} is a jitney (i.e a type of bus/trolley car/etc. in CK).
See also {qeng} "carry, convey" - presumably things. A {qengwI'} refers to the
stock of a disruptor rifle in SkyBox S14. A {tepqengwI'} is a cargo carrier (a
type of spacecraft) in TKD, but a cargo lift (judging by the drawing, a type of
crane) in the BoP Poster.
