If the animals are actually similar (in the made up world of Star Trek), that's what a Klingon might call it (I'm thinking of the precedent set by tera' peb'ot and tera' na'ran).<br id="FontBreak"></font><br><br><font style="" face="Courier New"><br>-- toDQun<br></font><br><br><div>&gt; Date: Sat, 12 Nov 2011 16:10:33 -0500<br>&gt; From: [email protected]<br>&gt; To: [email protected]<br>&gt; Subject: [Tlhingan-hol] Sajmey<br>&gt; <br>&gt; Saj ghaj be'nalwI'.<br>&gt; <br>&gt; vIghro' 'oH.<br>&gt; <br>&gt; vIghro' bop vIjatlhlaH.<br>&gt; <br>&gt; 'ach Saj ghaj be'nalwI' be'nI'.<br>&gt; <br>&gt; 'ej vIghro' 'oHbe'.<br>&gt; <br>&gt; bo'Degh 'oHbe'.<br>&gt; <br>&gt; ghotI' 'oHbe'.<br>&gt; <br>&gt; lung 'oHbe'.<br>&gt; <br>&gt; yIH 'oHbe'.<br>&gt; <br>&gt; Qa'Hom 'oHbe'.<br>&gt; <br>&gt; nuq 'oH?<br>&gt; <br>&gt; "dog" 'oS'a'?<br>&gt; <br>&gt; {Ha'DIbaH} vIlo' vIneHbe'.<br>&gt; <br>&gt; Ha'DIbaH Segh bop jIjatlh vIneH.<br>&gt; <br>&gt; <br>&gt; <br>&gt; ~'anan naHQun<br>&gt; <br>&gt; -- <br>&gt; ~Michael Roney, Jr.<br>&gt; Professional Klingon Translator<br>&gt; webOS Developer<br>&gt; <br>&gt; http://www.twitter.com/roneyii<br>&gt; http://www.google.com/s2/profiles/110546798564536163288<br>&gt; <br>&gt; _______________________________________________<br>&gt; Tlhingan-hol mailing list<br>&gt; [email protected]<br>&gt; http://stodi.digitalkingdom.org/mailman/listinfo/tlhingan-hol<br></div> 		 	   		  </div></body>
