I'm sorry, I don't catalogue sources very well like some people do. I
usually can just remember pretty well when we learned new words, but been
very busy last week. I just grabbed some examples out of my head. The
meaning of magh (I may be confused with 'agh or 'ang) has been expanded on
since it was first introduced. bol and chel I'm pretty sure were expanded
in KGT but it might have been earlier, Someone gave me a gift with a pun
on the new meaning of bol back in Las Vegas, was that pre-KGT? I looked up
ruQ, and I see I meant raQ. raQ used to just mean camp, but now it takes
on the old meaning of ruQ, with the additional meaning
"handle." jabbI'IDghom vIlaDchu'be'mo' 'a qaStaHvIS wa'maH DIS Hol
