Klingon WOTD: qajunpaQ (n)
This is the Klingon Word Of The Day for Friday, June 15, 2001.
Klingon word: qajunpaQ
Part of Speech: noun
Definition: courage, audacity
Additional Notes:
See also {toDuj}.
KGT, p. 10-11. This words comes from [kajunpakt], a word used in this sense but literally meaning something like "glowing lava" or "fiery lava" in a language originally spoken on Krios. In Klingon, it implies courage or a rather surprising or unexpected kind, perhaps even recklessness, as opposed to {toDuj} ("courage, bravery"), which is more neutral.
