I know that the a highlight of qep'a' for many of the non-attendees is the =
possibility of new words or grammar from Marc Okrand.  To this I generally =
say, "eat what's on your plate before you ask for more."  I know that I mys=
elf do not have a perfect command of all the vocabulary and grammar we alre=
ady have, and I focus my efforts towards increasing my recall and precision=
 with those words. But here is what I learned from Marc this year.

He apologized unprompted for not addressing the request list from last year=
. He still has it, and it's on his mind, just untouched.

It would appear that he is working on the current Star Trek movie, but can'=
t say anything about it under a non-disclosure agreement.

There are Klingon lines that he wrote but that were not used in the previou=
s Star Trek movie and he was unsure whether the NDA would allow him to reve=
al them to us.

He explained again that some of the tlhIngan Hol in Into Darkness had to be=
 created to match the lip movements of someone speaking already created Kli=
ngon lines, WITH THE VIDEO PLAYED BACKWARDS!

He said that a leak could be said to be was the reason he was called in to =
rework the Vulcan lines for Star Trek II. Because the news of Spock's death=
 leaked, they inserted the scene at the beginning where he "dies" in the Ko=
bayashi Maru scenario.  That meant that in the next scene with Spock and Sa=
avik, Saavik's character had already met Kirk, so her line had to be change=
d. Enter Marc.

He didn't feel he had anything new he could report this year, so just let t=
he new people ask questions and retold stories we know and love.

I generally like to let him relax and enjoy qep'a' free from interrogation,=
 but at the "Ask Marc" session he indicated that I should ask him my questi=
ons one-on-one, so here's the result of a fairly informal hallway conversat=
ion. Note that this was a conversation with Marc, not matlh, so not canon.

- be''etlh and neb'a' brought their infant son to qep'a' and I suggested to=
 Marc that describing the activities of an infant would be a completely "fa=
mily-friendly" way to introduce some of the vocabulary we lack.  He was rec=
eptive to that, and also mentioned that now he has retired he isn't quite a=
s concerned about the need to be "family-friendly."

- I asked him about how we would describe someone's right hand.  I said I w=
ould say nIHwIj ghop 'the hand of my right side' and he said "I would do th=
at too," making a dissatisfied face about the alternative nIH ghopwIj 'my h=
and of the right side.'

- I asked "or are nIH and poS like tlhop and 'em, taking the pronoun rather=
 than the possessive suffix?" but he felt that nIHwIj was correct.

- I asked if vogh could be used for a static locative, or was it only pa' n=
aDev and Dat that did not take -Daq. He said that he did not think he had i=
ntended the list in TKD to be exclusive, and that vogh could probably be a =
locative all by itself, but that he would have to re-read it to be sure.

ghunchu'wI' and others were there during the conversation and I invite them=
 to add or correct anything they may recall differently.
