I saw several new words (words new to me; they may already be known to others):<br>

Where did you see those? Were they written by MO? Were they printed? Or just written on table among a lot of weird drawings? pay attention to those latter, many of our students like to &quot;invent&quot; funny klingon words :-)</blockquote>


</div><div><br></div><div>Qov had actually used &lt;&#39;IvtIH&gt; in her story at some point.  The sentence was &lt;&#39;IvtIHDu&#39;Daj &#39;uch Mahoun&gt;, so I inferred it was a body part. ghunchu&#39;wI&#39; appeared to know it, so I wrote it down as a new word.  This was before the qepHom.  </div>

<div><br></div><div>At the qepHom, I happened to talk to &#39;ISqu&#39; about this word, and she showed me a list of five words she&#39;d typed out from a previous qep&#39;a&#39;, under the title &lt;porgh &#39;ay&#39;&gt;: the above four plus &lt;lev&gt; which I already had in my own dictionary.  All five words were parts of the body.  She also had definitions.  However, I didn&#39;t want to post the definitions I copied from her, since our definitions of &lt;lev&gt; differed slightly: my notes say &quot;n. hard palate, roof of mouth (source: qep&#39;a&#39; 12)&quot;, and her definition simply said &quot;n. palate&quot;.  So she may have abbreviated her definitions, or perhaps my source had elaborated it (link: <a href="http://klingon.livejournal.com/26647.html";>http://klingon.livejournal.com/26647.html</a>, from <a href="/tlh/newwords.html";>/tlh/newwords.html</a>).  </div>
<div><br></div><div>If someone else has seen the above four words before, please post the definitions you have.  Otherwise, I&#39;ll post the ones I copied from her in a little bit.</div>
