Re: Klingon WOTD: juH (noun)

Steven Boozer ([email protected])




This is the Klingon Word Of The Day for Tuesday, January 11, 2005.

Klingon word:   juH
Part of Speech: noun
Definition:     home
Source: TKD (91 KE, 137 EK)
Swedish: hem

As used in canon:

  SuvwI' juHmey rur tachmey.
  Bars resemble warriors' homes. CK

  juHwIjDaq Dochvetlh vItlhap.
  I will take that to my home. PK

  naDev juHlIjDaq cha'logh jISopneSchugh vaj jIquv.
  It would be an honor to eat twice here at your
  house, your Honor. PK

Do not confuse {juH} with {tuq} "house (i.e. Great House), tribe, ancestral unit" - as in one's formal name and lineage:

  qeylor qeylIn puqloD molor tuq
  Kahlor, son of Kahlin, of the House of Molor
  Kahlor, son of Kahlin, House of Molor  (st.klingon 9/97)

Cf. also {qach} "building, structure".
