Re: Sun?



From: "Klingon Warrior" <[email protected]>

> Is there a word for the sun?  A sun?  If not, any ideas on how to say such
a noun?

We don't know of any word for "sun."

Somebody's going to suggest /pem Hov/ "daytime star."  That's cute, and
maybe even deductively conclusive, but it's always left me with a feeling of
"yeah, right."  How often do YOU call the sun the "daytime star" in casual
conversation?

Other unsatisfactory ways to say it include "Sol" (that is, name the sun in
question), /Hovtaymaj Hov/ "our star system's star," /Hov Sum/ "nearby
star," and /Hov'a'/ "important star." Feel free to construct your own.
