It was the arena and a wild thag or fierce tarag for me--unless the Mahars elected to take me to the pits.
She, too, could fight a thag should emergency require.
We certainly could not live long in this little boat, with only a few strips of dried thag and a few quarts of water left.
Then we busied ourselves stepping a mast and rigging a small sail--Juag and I, that is--while Dian cut the thag meat into long strips for drying when we should be out in the sunlight once more.
By the time the thag had ceased bellowing the fellow had got well away upon his swift mount.
I could not keep in front of a charging thag long enough to give the killer time to do his work.
The bladder of the thag would make a fine water-bottle, and its skin, I figured, would be a good sail.
But eventually she tolerated Juag as she had Dian and me, and the five of us set out toward the coast, for Juag had just completed his labors on the thag when we arrived.
The thag had covered considerable ground from the point at which I had leaped upon him.
Now, no vertebrate can progress far with a knife through his spine, and the thag is no exception to the rule.
With the advent of the Bos--they call the thing a thag within Pellucidar--two spears were tossed into the arena at the feet of the prisoners.
The thag was charging now from one side, and the tarag from the other.
Do you mean to say that you have not missed me since that time we were separated by the charging thag within the arena?
You saw the two who met the tarag and the thag the time that you escaped?
Upon one side of the doomed pair the thag bellowed and advanced, and upon the other tarag, the frightful, crept toward them with gaping mouth and dripping fangs.
It is the slave who claims to be from another world--he who escaped when the thag ran amuck within the amphitheater.
Thag must be very terrible indeed if even half this alarm had foundation.
Remotely in the back of his mind Smith remembered the tree-folk's warning, "When Thag calls, you must answer.
Thag might not be the center of the universe, but if they said he could call a victim from anywhere in the land, Smith was not disposed to doubt it.
From the first he had felt subconsciously that it was Thag who called, and now, in the very center of that ocean of vibrant power, he knew.
Thag was not of the world he knew; the flame blast might well be harmless to that mighty hoverer in the twilight.
Whatever Thag might be, his power in this land could not be doubted.
I have spoken softly so that the tree-people do not hear, for to them Thag is the center and focus of creation, the end and beginning of all life.
Then what becomes, afterward, of the men Thag desires?
It must have happened after the terrible force of the explosion had spent itself, before Thag dared move even himself through the walls of changing energy into his own far land again.
He descended slowly, every sense alert for danger, not knowing if Thag was beast or human or elemental, visible or invisible.
Not Illar, but Thag himself had warped the walls of space to enfold the twilit world, and nothing but Thag's living power could have held it so bent to segregate the little, terror-ridden land inviolate.
She gave Thag a nickel," explained the eldest boy, "and we want it.
You only had one ticket for yourself, and two half fares for Thag and Emmy," said Huldah suspiciously.
The above list will hopefully give you a few useful examples demonstrating the appropriate usage of "thag" in a variety of sentences. We hope that you will now be able to make sentences using this word.
