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

[Steven Boozer]

> Klingon word:   lItHa'
> Part of speech: verb
> Definition:     get off (of)

As used in canon:

  jol SeHlaw lItHa'!   (Clipped: pet command)
  Get off that transporter control panel! PK

AFAIK the unsuffixed form {lIt} "get on(to)" has never been used.

If you can use {lit(Ha')} WRT animals, bicycles and motorcycles, snowmobiles, etc., "mount" and "dismount" work as translations. 

Related verbs:

gho' 	step on
 {ghew vIgho'} I step on the bug. KGT

ten 		embark 
 [Never used in canon]

tIj		board, go aboard
