​I think *ngagh* might just be a regular word and not necessarily
profanity. None of the other PK examples of curse warfare​ are particularly
PG-13 rated, after all. I don't think it would be inappropriate, for
instance, for a farmer to use *ngagh* to describe what they want their
animals to do together, or a biologist to use it to describe what a bird
hopes to accomplish with his fancy dance moves. IIRC, it was also used in
paq'batlh for Kahless and Lukara getting it on after slaughtering a couple
hundred warriors together, so it presumably doesn't just apply to animals.
