[Tlhingan-hol] Klingon Word of the Day: neSlo'

[Gaerfindel]

ghItlh voragh; jatlh:
 >> "[For] _The Final Reflection_ ... if reflection, as in image in a 
mirror is needed, [Maltz] offered {neSlo' tonSaw' Qav}."
 >>
 >>[Okrand to qurgh, 9/01/2010] "We went with {neSlo' tonSaw' Qav} for 
the title of the book, since reflection, in this case, refers to version 
of >>*klinzha* that is played with a mirror."

cha' DoSmey DIqIp Okrand jIH je'.  The "Reflection" of the title refers 
to the reflective game, a version of *klinzha* {tlhInja'?} where the 
player is playing against himself, forcing him to think several moves 
ahead; to "reflect" upon his moves before acting. (Not normally a very 
Klingon attribute, but trust me, I've tried this version, and it's good 
practice for thinking like a Romulan!) {neSlo' tonSaw'} reads to me like 
a squad commander matching his opponent's manoeuvres move-for-move.

Unfortunately, I don't have a better suggestion.
