Talk:Bregit

I don't think this is an animal
Contrary to what this article claims, the does not state that bregits are animals. Riker simply mentions that he "enjoyed this bregit lung".

According to Star Trek: Klingon - directed by Jonathan Frakes himself - Marc Okrand's language notes claims that a bregit lung is "The breathing organ of any of a number of Klingon beasts, prepared in a manner that preserves its tough texture and blanched color."; this suggests that bregit refers to the manner in which the dish was prepared, rather than to what it's made of. (This would certainly not be unprecedented: A number of Klingon foods are named after famous chefs or warriors, rather than after the animal it's made from. For example, qeyvaq Ha'DIbaH means "meat of Kayvak" (Kayvak being a Klingon warrior of some fame), and refers to any type of fermented meat.) --Tesseraktik (talk) 12:18, November 16, 2012 (UTC)
