Is paq&#39;batlh considered canon?<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Nov 7, 2011 at 10:12 AM, Steven Boozer <span dir="ltr">&lt;<a href="mailto:[email protected]";>[email protected]</a>&gt;</span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">
{ghal} &quot;be jealous, envy&quot; (v) is probably just be a simple look-up error for &quot;envoy&quot; by the person who compiled the dramatis personae list.  You noted that within the play this character is called {molor Duy&#39;} - sic! for {molor Duy} - &quot;Molor&#39;s agent/emissary/delegate&quot;.<br>

<br>
Hmm...  {molor Duy&#39;} &quot;defective Molor&quot; could be a traditional epithet for this despised figure - especially by Klingon children!  &lt;g&gt;<br>

&gt;<br>
&gt; In the &quot;Dramatis Personae&quot;, one character is listed as &quot;Molor&#39;s<br>
&gt; Envoy&quot;. The facing Klingon names him {molor ghal}. The character is<br>
&gt; introduced early in the text as &quot;an envoy of Molor&quot; {molor Duy&#39;}. He<br>
&gt; has but two lines, and so far as I can tell does not appear again.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; I know the verb {ghal} &quot;be jealous&quot; well. It was revealed in response<br>
&gt; to my request (as a newly induced Friend of Maltz) for a way to<br>
&gt; express jealousy. I&#39;ve never known it to be used as a noun, but if it<br>
&gt; were, I&#39;d have said it meant &quot;envy&quot;.<br>
