_______________________________________________
chur be uncomfortable (v) (qep'a' 2017)
(qep'a' 2017): because of clothes, room temperature, etc. (involved with physical unpleasantness)
Versus {tey} "be uncomfortable close" and {teybe'} "be comfortable, easy":
(qep'a' 2017) : for the sense of being close or not having wiggle room or leeway (If you were victorious, but just barely made it at the last minute or something like that, you could say {tey yay}.)
CULTURE NOTES:
"No matter where you stay the accommodations will be stark compared to what you are used to. Klingons are predisposed to rejecting anything whose sole function is physical comfort. They will, however, make some concessions for visitors." (CK)
