latlh De'/Additional Information

wound one's pride:

{Ha'qujlIj nge' ghaH.}
He wounds your pride.

This is the Klingon equivalent of "wound one's pride." The sash represents a Klingon's heritage. If the sash is removed, so is the Klingon's ancestral identity, and, along with it, his or her dignity and self-esteem. It is generally used with a possessive pronominal suffix attached to {Ha'quj} ("sash"): {Ha'qujwIj} ("my sash"), {Ha'qujlIj} ("your sash"), and so forth. Thus, the phrase {Ha'qujlIj nge'} (literally, "take away your sash") means "wound your pride."
