> Part of speech: noun
> Definition: serpent worm (food)
> Source: TKD (101 KE, 139 EK)

simple line skip: 101 KE / 139 EK shows {qagh} "interrupt".

A note for beginners and also for nitpickers: The definition of {ghargh}
contains a comma: "serpent, worm". There actually is no such thing as a
"serpent worm".

But... The "serpent worm" was a mistake, apparently done by the authors
of TNG who oversaw the comma (I'm sure someone knons the detailed
story), because the word {qagh} appears in the addendum as "serpent worm
(food)" KE 183 / EK 190

The mistake was confirmed by Okrand, who backfitted the word into the
addendum, see the Klingonwiki at "Gagh":
