Notes
HQ 12.4 p9: For Klingons, even though there is a word for cry (SaQ), there is no word for tear or tears, undoubtedly because Klingons have no tear ducts. [mentioned in ST6] The only thing Maltz could think of that eyes do from time to time is redden (DoqchoH, literally "become red" or "change to red"). TREK TRIVIA: Unlike humans, Klingons do not cry at weddings. (Worf, TNG "Data's Day") SEE ALSO: jach cry out (v) mIn eye (n) mu'aw' mInDu'wIj My eyes sting [me]. CK
