Klingon word: mIn yuqwI'

Part of speech: noun

Definition: stage magician

Source: November 2016 email to Lieven

_______________________________________________



(Lieven < MO, 11/2016) :  The most common way to refer to a magician, like =
Kalibo, is mIn yuqwI' (yuq is outwit, outsmart)... Another expression for m=
agician is 'IDnar lIlwI' ... perform magic (as Kalibo does) is mIn yuq or '=
IDnar lIl.



(Lieven < MO, 11/2016):  To conjure or to cast a spell, which is what wizar=
ds do, is reS. So a wizard or sorcerer can also be called a reSwI'. A spell=
, in this sense, is tlheH. One can say either tlheH reS or just reS alone f=
or he/she casts a spell. Maltz wasn't sure if there is anything besides tlh=
eH that can be the object of reS, since Maltz isn't a 'IDnar pIn'a', but ma=
ybe there is.



SEE:
'IDnar          magic, wizardry (n)

'IDnar lIlwI'   magician (n)

'IDnar pIn'a'  wizard, sorcerer (n)



lIl             simulate, impersonate (v)

reS             conjure, cast a spell (v)

yuq             outwit, outsmart (v)
