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

[Rohan Fenwick]

ghItlhpu' qurgh, jatlh:
> Klingon word: pagh
> Part of speech: num
> Definition: zero 

jang Voragh, jatlh:
> Don't confuse {pagh} "zero" with {pagh} IKC Pagh (ship name), {pagh} "or, or else, either/or" (conj.), {pagh} "nothing, none" (n) or {pagh} "no one" (n).

Or {pagh} "Eric Andeen". {{:)

Kidding aside, since numbers can be used as nouns (TKD p.54), {pagh} "nothing, none" (n), {pagh} "no one" (n) and {pagh} "zero" (num) are almost certainly the same lexeme, so can probably be "confused" with abandon.
