Yesterday, reader Teresa S. expressed interest in a regular feature on how to say squirrel in different languages, much as we did with bunny last week. So beginning with Esperanto: sciuro, Chinook: skudzo or ap-poe-poe, Basque: urtxintxa (meaning "walnut otter"), German: eichhörnchen (meaning "oak kitten"), Klingon: qon'Het'wa, and Oriya: goondoochi moosa.

Where did you find the alleged Klingon "qon'Het'wa"? I can tell you that Klingon wouldn't have the "'" between two consonants, so it
would seem like that's just someone making up a word that looks like
Klingon, but isn't. If you can find a copy of the Klingon Dictionary,
you'll see what I mean.
