A friend of mine asked me to translate "soul sister" for her.
She's hoping to use the translation as her Klingon name.
I found two basic definitions on-line; she's aiming for the second one.
1) a black female, especially a fellow black female.
2) a woman whose thoughts, feelings, and attitudes closely match those
of another; a kindred spirit.
The phrase "kindred spirit" makes me think of Anne with an 'e'.
I would describe the relationship between Anne and Diana with {chaj}.
However, "A male Klingon would address a female Klingon as chaj only
to offend her."
Does this insult go away if it's her name?
