Hello, and welcome. You’re listening to DaHjaj Hol, your daily dose of Klingon language. I’m your host, Lawrence Schoen.
Our suffix this Thursday is another of those charming Type Six Verb suffixes that indicate something of the quality of the action or state of being. It’s –bej. B, E, J. –bej means certainly or undoubtedly. You use it like so:
bIHeghchoHchugh vaj bIlujbej
if you have died, then you undoubtedly lost
wa’leS qavuvbej
I will certainly respect you tomorrow
qoHpu’ maSba’ be’nI’wI’ ‘ach vImaSbe’bej
my sister obviously prefers fools, but I certainly do not prefer them
Consider how much time you’ve put into downloading and listening to these podcasts. Count up too the many hours you’ve spent studying Klingon. And let’s not ignore the effort you’ve expended stretching each new linguistic muscle as you discover it. Never doubt then, that you are a language warrior, and your destiny is to wield this language as your weapon. qo’mey poSmoH Hol.

| Today’s podcast is brought to you by Buffalito Destiny by Lawrence M. Schoen.
“The Amazing Conroy is a stage hypnotist who has parlayed an alien buffalo dog — a creature that eats anything and farts oxygen — into a powerful corporation worth billions. An ambitious plan to use these buffalitos to clean up toxic waste sites places him in direct conflict with a radical anti-alien ecoterrorist organization, and before long, Conroy is on the run with only his pet buffalito, Reggie, and his gambler pal, Left-John Mocker, to aid him. As bizarre dreams guide him inexorably towards a mysterious destiny, Conroy deals with prophetic aliens, ancient Mayan ruins, exquisite sandwiches and the temporally-unstable state of Texas. Part crisis-filled road trip, part gonzo race against time, and all tongue-in-cheek humor and charm, this nutty tale may sound strange, but Schoen somehow makes it all come together.” –Publishers Weekly “Only Lawrence Schoen could blend the Mayan eschaton, nightclub hypnotism, corporate elitism, radical environmentalism, and good old-fashioned slam-bang adventure fiction.” — Jay Lake, Campbell Award winner |
