Notes

(Lieven, on Facebook group tlhIngan Hol jatlhwI'pu', 1 Dec 2010): Finally, someone last year asked for the word for "picture." At first, Maltz wondered why nagh beQ wasn't good enough. But then he thought about it some more and said that another word, mIllogh, could be used for any sort of depiction, including drawings, photographs, cartoons, icons on 21st-century computers, and so on.

majyang mIllogh                 mosaic (n)
mIllogh qonwI'                  camera (n)
mIllogh qonwI' qoSta'           film (n) 

CULTURAL NOTES:

(KGT 80):  typically the head of any rivet (veragh) used has a raised image of some kind, often that of a Klingon warrior's head.  Sometimes extra ornamentation, carved of a different material, is attached.  This would typically be the case with a family crest ((tuq Degh}).

PUN: 

"A picture is worth a thousand words."
