Okrand says on Klingon CD:

-------------
"Lizard" is only a close approximation of what the Klingon word lung
{means}. "Salamander" might do just as well, but in fact, neither is
accurate. The word for skin is {DIr}. The plural form of this word is
never used when referring to the skin of this animal prepared as food.
-------------

In my opinion, he just wanted to say that you don't use it in a phrase
like {Duran lung *DIrmey vISop}. If there are several skins "floating
around", I'm sure it's okay to use the plural suffix there.
