DurIt tlhIngan yejquv
Summoned to the Klingon High Council. MKE
Related words:
rI' hail (v)
Qum communicate (v)
van salute (v)
ghunchu'wI' suggests {rItHa'} for "dismiss" (which I think is excellent). {ghomHa'} "scatter, disperse" was used for that idea in DS9 "Sons & Daughters": Worf dismissed a group of "replacement" crewmen for the Rotarran by saying, "Yih-Ghom-HAH! (Dismissed!)" [line from the script].
