Lieven on Facebook (21/01/2010): Finally, someone last year asked for the =
word for picture. At first, Maltz wondered why {nagh beQ} wasn't good enoug=
h. But then he thought about it some more and said that another word, {mIll=
ogh}, could be used for any sort of depiction, including drawings, photogra=
phs, cartoons, icons on 21st-century computers, and so on. [...] You can ad=
d to your notes that it was an email from Marc Okrand of November 15, 2010.=
He had sent this one to reveal the new words at the {qepHom'a'} in Saarbr=
=FCcken, because the students had asked for them last year. Unfortunately h=
e did not answer all of the questions, but Maltz was quite willing this tim=
e.
PUN: =
A picture is worth a thousand (Lat. *millia*) words (Grk. *logos*).
