[Tlhingan-hol] Month sentences

[Robyn Stewart]

Yes, I have waQ and wen in the sentences, but you’ll have to explain the puns for me. I’ve been saying them over and over again and nothing twigs. I think I initially remembered ‘way back when’ and ‘a whack of time from now’.

I don’t remember if you mentioned it before, but don’t forget to add {waQ} and {wen}  to the mix:

IMO, HQ 8.3:  Another pair of words of this type refers to months: {wen} “months ago”, {waQ} “months from now”. Thus, {loSwen} is “four months ago” and {wa'waQ} is “next month” (one month from now). 

They’re two of my favorite Okrandian puns/mnemonics.
