Notes

KGT p. 71. Though one occasionally hears someone say QoQ tIv ("He/she enjoys[the] music") or bom tIv ("He/she enjoys the song"), music is not reallyconsidered something that causes pleasure. Among Klingons, pleasure is deemedquite unessential for one's well-being. More frequently, the appreciation ofmusic is expressed in terms of something that music does to the listener ratherthan in terms of the listener's reaction. Thus, music is said to embolden(jaqmoH), excite (SeymoH), encourage (tungHa'), or to stimulate or inspire(pIlmoH).
