Re: Klingon WOTD: ma'veq ()
: Klingon word: ma'veq
: Part of Speech:
: Definition: a type of knife
:
: Additional Notes:
: It is a ceremonial knife used in the ritual of *Mauk To'Vor*.
: [seen in ST: DS9 Episode *Sons of Mogh*.]
:
: The word comes from a recording of Okrand's pronunciation at an exhibit at
: 1998 Praxis.
According to my notes, charghwI' reported that the exhibitor was told by
someone other than Okrand that it should be spelled *m'veQ* - I guess this
would be the common Federation Standard spelling for tho.
