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

[Steven Boozer]

It does, but the translation isn't precise:

  veymey puS neH chenmoHlu'pu' 
  Limited Edition. MKE
  ("Only a few {veymey} have been made.")

  boSwI'vaD veyvam le' chenmoHlu' 
  Collector's Edition. MKE
  ("This special {vey} made for the collector.")

  wa' tlhIngan QaS vey 
  one pack of Klingon Forces. MKE

"Set, pack" seems to be the jist - a group of related objects?  The package or box itself seems to be called a {'aplo'} which is written on the Monopoly box:

CONTENTS:
ngaS 'aplo'

Game board, 6 Collectible tokens, 28 Title Deed cards, 16 COMBAT
 cards, 16 HONOR cards, 2 dice, 32 Outposts, 12 Capitals, 1
 Pack of Klingon Forces, Rules, Chancellor's Cane Replica.
Quj 'echlet, polmeH jav QujwI' lIwmey, cha'maH chorgh yer ghajwI'
 chaw' 'echletHommey, wa'maH jav quv 'echletHommey, wa'maH
 jav vIq 'echletHommey, cha' mI' naghmey, wejmaH cha' raQmey,
 wa'maH cha' monmey, wa' tlhIngan QaS vey, paqHom, Qang naQ velqa'.


{'aplo'} is also used in TalkNow Klingon (TNK):

wab qoSta' 'aplo' 	cassette (i.e. audiocassette)
'ul 'aplo'mey 		batteries
