Notes

KGT p. 67. A weapon that is particularly good, that is well designed and wellconstructed, is normally described as vaQ. Thus, a taj vaQ is ameticulously made knife and a ghanjaq vaQ is an especially nice mace. Inspeaking about a fine weapon, one could compliment it even further by adding theemphatic -qu' to vaQ. A really spectacular [bat'leth] would be a betleHvaQqu'. The word vaQ is not often used in describing the newer weapons(disruptors and the like), though such locutions are heard from time to time. The original meaning of vaQ has been extended to mean "effective, vigorous,aggressive" and is now heard applied not only to weapons but also to people:SuvwI' vaQ ("aggressive warrior ").
