Frases de ejemplo

  • potlhbe'chugh yay qatlh pe''eghlu'? If winning is not important, then why keep score? [TKW p.135]
  • The Klingon way to say keep score is pe''egh, literally, cut oneself. It comes form an old Klingon habit of keeping track of accomplishments by making small cuts on one's skin, usually on the face, as a tally. Perhaps coincidentally, Klingons' faces are often similarly scratched following romantic encounters. [TKW p.135]
