[Tlhingan-hol] Gleanings from Monopoly: Klingon Edition (MKE)

[Steven Boozer]

I've been slowly adding the texts to my notes and collecting the new words (some derived from existing words), phrases and extensions of existing vocabulary.  Here are some *first impressions* of items that haven't already been discussed earlier.  This list isn't exhaustive (I noticed some other items in the cards that De'VId scanned and put on the net).  

Others are welcome to add to the list.  Nothing is authoritative, of course, but it's only intended to spark a discussion.
