Frasi di esempio
- The Klingon term for a replacement proverb is qa'meH vIttlhegh. This is the only way to say replacement proverb currently, but in the past, the common term was the lengthier quvqa'meH vIttlhegh, literally, proverb for (the purpose of) being honored again. The word qa'meH, clearly a shortened form of quvqa'meH, was originally used only in the construction of qa'meH vIttlhegh, but, though historically two verb suffixes, it has become accepted as a noun in its own right, meaning replacement in the sense of something that takes over for or is used instead of something that is gone or that has been lost. It is not used for a temporary substitute or a stand-in; the word for that is lIw. [HolQeD-05-1 p.10]
