Well, based on {verengan}, shouldn't it be *{vere} or *{veren}? But we
know the Ferengis call it something that sounds like "Ferenginar" to human
ears, and perhaps the same word sounds like {verngannar} to Klingons.
Maybe it's {verengan} that's unusual. Perhaps Klingons think
{verngannarngan} is too long and unwieldy, or the presence of a {ngan} in
the middle of a word ending in {ngan} is confusing to them (what? what's a
Verian's Narian?), and so they shortened the word to {verengan} via some
process that added the middle "e".
