>> From: qurgh lungqIj [mailto:qurgh at wizage.net]
>> Klingon word: ngem
>> Part of speech: noun
>> Definition: forest, woods
>> Source: TKD (98 KE, 134 EK, 161 EK)
> And here are some sentences using the word:

ngem ghIj puq.
The child scares the forest. [!]

puq ghIj ngem.
The forest scares the child.

ngem leghvIp puq.
{legh} means "see", but I could not find {-vIp}, so I can't make sense of the sentence.
