i just read in hol.kag.org that "Those notions expressed as adjectives in
English (such as *big, tired*) are expressed by verbs in Klingon (*be big,
be tired*)"

but what am i to do,when the klingon verb is a noun too ?

suppose i want to write "secret weapon". if i say "nuH pegh" can't this be
mistaken for "secret of the weapon" or "weapon's secret" ?
