loS... qIb HeHDaq
It waits... on the edge of the galaxy S99
DaH maloS. peghItlh!
(st.k 8/96) [untranslated]
... and possibly from TNG:
jIbechrup may' vIloS
I am ready to suffer battle. I wait for them. (TNG "The Icarus Factor")
["I am ready to suffer. I wait for battle."]
(The Klingon is good though it doesn't quite match the English line. This is the episode where we first saw the Rite of Ascension - well, a holographic reenactment - and there was a bit more Klingon heard. Was Okrand involved?)
Anything in the paq'batlh?
PUN:
"wait fo(u)r"? (Doneq)
Similar verbs:
pIH expect (v)
tuv be patient (v)
mIm delay (v)
lum postpone, procrastinate (v)
ratlh remain (v)
N.B. do not confuse with the homophonous numeral {loS} "four".
