TREK TRIVIA:
   The Cardassians fire on the USS Enterprise and the IKV Maht-H'a to disable them. Capt Nu'Daq, aboard the Enterprise, hails Maht-H'a:
   "Maht-H'a, status?"
   "Minor damage to starboard nacelle. We will be operational in less than one hour."
   "WHAT! You incompetent *toh-pah*! You were supposed to be prepared!" 
   Later, on the planet where the genetic puzzle is finally solved, the Cardassian Gul who tried to deceive both the Klingons and Federation, materializes. Nu'Daq shouts, "You dishonorable *toh-pah*!"   [TNG "The Chase"]
