You asked about a noun phrase in isolation. The choice of translations depe=
nds on how the noun phrase is used, so I gave it a context. I chose {pong} =
simply because it was the first to occur to me.<br>
<br>
If you find yourself having trouble translating noun phrases, the problem m=
ay be that Klingon may not encapsulate the complete idea in an equivalent n=
oun phrase. Instead, look to see if you can put the idea in a complete sent=
ence without thinking about noun phrases.<br>
