Hello, and welcome. You’re listening to DaHjaj Hol, your daily dose of Klingon language. I’m your host, Lawrence Schoen.
And now I get to bring you one of my favorite nouns in Klingon. It’s Dap. Capital D, A, P. Dap means nonsense. Yes, even a well-disciplined language warrior has to make time for nonsense.
Dat Dap DaQoylaH
you can hear nonsense everywhere
ramqu’ nov Dap ‘ach potlh tlhIngan Dap
alien nonsense is trivial, but Klingon nonsense is important
DaplIjmo’ bepqa’ loDnalwI’
because of your nonsense, my husband is complaining again
Some people want to change the world with language. Some people want to to describe the world they live in. Some people just want to talk. And some people realize that fundamentally, these are all the same thing. But some people haven’t admitted that to themselves. Yet. 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 |
