Good lists. I'll add my own:
*Native Terms*
1. Measurements other than than {cheb} and {'uj}. Surely Klingons had
a way to measure smaller weights and lengths than those! Origin of such
measurements. (E.g. the fathom is measured from fingertip-to-fingertip
of a man with his arms spread wide.)
2. Origin of Hut, maH, San(ID), and other number-forming elements
*Calender*
3. Names/number of Seasons?
4. Names/number of months -- how many days per?
5. Days of the week
6. How many (Klingon) hours per day? [There's a tale of Emperor Kaga
who ruled for "a twentieth part of a day."] How many days per year?
*Astronomy*
7. Native names for stars. We already have {jul}; certainly there are
others.
8. Constellations?
9. Name of Kronos's sun and other planets (and moons?) orbiting it.
