[Tlhingan-hol] Klingon Word of the Day: HoQ

[Rohan Fenwick - QeS 'utlh]

ghItlhpu' qurgh, jatlh:
> Klingon word: HoQ
> Part of speech: verb
> Definition: be honored falsely, be falsely honorable

jang Voragh, jatlh:
> Related verbs:
> HoQmoH  	honor falsely
> quv 		be honored, be honorable
> Qaq 		behave falsely honorably/in a falsely honorable manner
> mIl 		be formerly honored
> Have any of these been used in the {paq'batlh}?

I haven't yet got the paq'batlh in a searchable format so I have to search by eye, but I couldn't find HoQ or Qaq, and I'll have to look again for quv. mIl appears only twice, both in a verse that shows a really nice usage:

yIntaHwI'pu' vImIlHa'moH jIH
Heghpu'wI'pu'
DamIlHa'moH SoH

"I will restore honor among the living,
You will restore honor
Among the dead."

(pp. 146-147; paq'raD 16.22-24)
