Re: [Tlhingan-hol] paq'batlh: NEW USES OF KNOWN WORDS
<div>This isn't quite a new use of a known verb, but {QaD} is used in the sense of "be safe, be protected" in the text. It jumped out at me since it's supposed to be "slang", so I had a hard time seeing either Kahless or Molor using it; or, if we go along with the story that the text is a modern translation of an ancient work, I found it difficult to believe that a serious academic translator would use a slang term. </div>
