Frases de ejemplo

  • The word qu' may also be used as an exclamation ("Great!" "Wonderful!"). In this sense, it seems to be interchangeable with chong (literally, "be vertical"; see page 148). The slang usage of qu' is currently extremely common among Klingons, and it has pretty much displaced another slang term with the same set of meanings ("excellent, wonderful, etc."), Huv (literally, "be clear, not obstructed"), which was in vogue not all that long ago.
