No, it makes the assumption that when Okrand defines {ghIn} as
"monastery," it means "monastery," which is an English word. Barring
evidence to the contrary, use it the way it's defined.
Whenever we get new words, there's a always contingent that tries to
attribute more meaning to them than actually appear.
You're all overthinking this.

That makes the assumption that Klingons can be expected to do things the
same way English-speaking Humans do.
If that's the case, why don't they just speak English?
