Hi everyone,
I haven't tried to write anything in klingon in a long long time, so I
tried tonight and I got a few questions...
Although I have the impression that {-ghach} is not really recommended
(is that true?) I tried to use it anyway...
{veQ boStaHghach Hemey 'oghtaH 'ej qatlhDa'mey patmey je biQ
watlhmoHghach patmey utlhtaH 'e' jonwI'pu' 'ampaSDaq vIghojta'}
1) Am I understanding correctly the usage of {-ghach}? I was trying to
render "collection" and "purification", BTW.
Now, I tried to avoid using {'e'} and to rework the sentence using
{-meH}, and (after a few cosmetic changes) I got this:
{veQ boStaHghach Hemey 'ogh 'ej qatlhDa'mey patmey je biQ atlhmoHghach
patmey mutlhmeH jonwI'pu' 'ampaSDaq jIqeqpu'}
2) Is {-meH} in the right place here? Should I put it on {'ogh}
instead? Should I put it in both verbs?
*) bonus question: Is there a commonly used expression for
"engineering"? I can imagine something like {jonwI' Qap} would do it,
but would like to know if there is a better/more common option...
Thanks a lot,
ru'ben
PS: yep, I just put and apostrophe in my name, let's see... {ru'} be
temporary (n), {ben} years ago (n), ... uhmm... temporary since years
ago? like a permanent beta? or a cracked trial version? I like it.
lol.
