Notes

KGT p. 91. (Note that Soj woD ["He/she throws the food away"], which refers to a regrettable activity, is very different from Soj jaD ["He/she throws or hurls the food in the manner of a projectile"], which, under certain circumstances, is considered a reasonable pastime.)

This is used for throwing things at people.

latlh De'/Additional Information

qurgh: This sentence is based on the example that was given by Okrand at qo'Hey qepHom 4. He gave us all the pieces, and said the English sentence below, but missed saying mabaQ at the end of the Klingon. I confirmed the intended sentence with him on the Wednesday Feb 4th in person.

Literally the sentence means: We throw the ball and we catch the ball, we take turns.
