ghItlh HoD Qanqor:
Someone else in fact raised this same issue to me in private mail,
and I shall summarize the response I gave them: Yes, -chuq is
actually better, however -egh is not out-and-out wrong, so I did not
choose to criticise the tape (and, presumably, Okrand) in this regard.
But yes, -chuq does seem superior.
So let me verify that I understand the difference between
-chuq and -'egh: qIpchuq implies that they are hitting each
other (as was probably intended), and qIp'egh implies that a
group of Klingons are standing around, each one hitting
himself with his head? Dochvetlh vIlegh 'e' vItIv! :-)
