Notes

The word Qop means "be worn out" and is usually applied to old weapons, tools, mechanical devices, and the like. It is also used to mean "be dead," but only in reference to an animal that one was expecting to eat live. If a bowl of dead qagh (" serpent worms") is placed before a Klingon, the disappointed diner will probably criticize the cook for preparing qagh Qop ("dead ). The normal way to say "be dead," referring to a person or animal, is by using the form Heghpu' ("has died"): Heghpu' SuvwI' ("The warrior has died"). It is not appropriate to say SuvwI' Qop ("dead warrior, worn-out warrior.")
