And this is why we need an updated published list of Klingon vocabulary.

That word could have easily gone unnoticed.
And for new comers to the language, the amount of sources to find
words is maddening.

the Klingon phrase for "publishing house" is Se'vIr malja'. Se'vIr is
a publication of any kind (print or otherwise); it's a new word.

Thanks go out to Okrand for explaining the word to the publisher
(instead of just giving him the word sans explanation) and also to the
publisher for passing on the description.


I wonder how many other words are hiding out there...
