MKE N.B. chorgh is also name of the eighth tone of the Klingon nonatonic musical scale: KGT 73: The independent words for the numbers three through nine were not originally a part of the Klingon counting system, but they had to come from somewhere. The musical scale is the likely source. The word for the fourth musical tone, loS, began to be used for the number four, and so on through the eighth tone, chorgh.

KGT p. 72. Older Klingon music was based on a nonatonic scale--that is, onemade up of nine tones. Each tone has a specific name, comparable to the "do,re, mi" system used in describing music on Earth. The nine tone names are (thefirst and ninth, as with Earth's "do," being the same): yu, bIm, 'egh,loS, vagh, jav, Soch, chorgh, yu. While the first three (and ninth)of these words apparently are used only for singing the scale, the remainingfive are also numerals: loS, "four"; vagh, "five"; jav, "six"; Soch,"seven"; chorgh, "eight." It is possible that, at some time in the past, thenumerals were "borrowed" into the lexicon of music in order to sing the scalebut, for some reason, the first three (presumably wa', cha', wej ["one,two, three"]) were either changed or never used. It is far more likely,however, that the borrowing went in the other direction. As is well documented,the Klingon counting system was originally a ternary system (one based on three,with numbers higher than three formed from the words for "one," "two," and"three"). Later, owing to outside influences, it changed to a decimal system(based on ten). The independent words for the numbers three through nine werenot originally a part of the Klingon counting system, but they had to come fromsomewhere. The musical scale is the likely source. The word for the fourthmusical tone, loS, began to be used for the number four, and so on through theeighth tone, chorgh. (The origins of the words Hut ["nine"] and the suffix-maH, used in the words for "ten," "twenty," "thirty," and so on, areobscure.)
