[tlhIngan Hol] chIq

[Steven Boozer]

{chIq} was used in the National Aeronautic & Space Museum tour app (9/2016) in the entry for Lindbergh’s “Spirit of St. Louis” as a verb:

  nIteb 'atlantIq bIQ'a' chIqbogh 'orwI' wa'DIch mojta'
  he became the first pilot to cross the Atlantic Ocean solo  (NASM)

PUN: “Why did the chicken cross the road?  To get to the other side.”  IOW… traverse!

--Voragh

The New Words list has chIq cross, transverse (v). In English transverse is an adjective. Does this word mean place something across something else, or is the definition a typo for cross, traverse?
