Hmmmm, I wasn't even thinking about saying "blonde /person/". I like "SuDbogh 'ej wovbogh jIb" (I just reviewed the use of -bogh).

Maybe it could! I know in Spanish straight hair is "liso", so I figured a lot of languages would have different words for those two meanings of "straight".

I was hoping for a phrase meaning "round hair", but I couldn't find out how to say "be round" in Klingon.

Klingon color terms can sure get unwieldy! Its color division is pretty unusual by Terran standards. Although a lot of human languages merge their words for blue and green, I've never seen a language that combines blue, green AND yellow before. There are a lot of fascinating questions that can be asked about Klingon vision (like "Do Klingons see ultraviolet light?" or "Do any Klingons have achromatopsia?") when you have an advanced civilization with so few basic color terms.

I was hoping for a Klingon word for "spot", but couldn't find one nor anything like it. This (freckle/spot) would be a good one for our wish list for Dr. Okrand.

"mIn laH" is a GREAT construction! I was puzzling over how to say sight/vision (all I could find was the verb "to sight" "puS" in this war-heavy-vocabulary language).

That's even better. "Ho'baS" could also mean "amalgams" or "gold teeth" (although "qol'om Ho'Du'" would be a good translation of gold teeth).

Oh, I'm fine with the gloss teeth-metal for "Ho'baS". I wasn't implying that the "Ho'" part had to be singular.
I know that the non-head parts of compounds don't need a plural ending, but we do have -mey and -Du' and -pu' so I figured that pluralizable nouns (used as nouns) had to have their pluralness marked.

"Collar-having informal tunic"? Works for me.

You really dislike the English term "wifebeater", don't you? :) "Sleeve-lacking tunic" sounds nice, though . . . but don't ALL yIvbeHmey lack sleeves?

Could "nenbogh nuv" mean the noun "adult"?
