(4) For "spectrum," Maltz said to use the word yutlhegh. This is really a (musical) scale, but the word can also be used for other sorts of ranges. Maltz, of course, never heard of a "Spectrum of Nerdiness," but he said it could be qatru' yutlhegh or {venwI' yutlhegh} or even ventaHghach yutlhegh. (Of the latter, Maltz said it made sense to him and was grammatical, but he didn't really like it.) - Mark Okrand to De'vID for the "Festival of the Spoken Nerd" DVD.
