Klingon word: muq
Part of speech: verb
Definition: have a volume of
_______________________________________________
AFAIK never used.
See the other measurement verbs for usage: {juch} have a width of; {Saw'} have a depth of; {'ab / 'aD} have a length of; {ngI'} have a weight of. Note too the verb {vItlh} "be high, great (in quantity, size, intensity)":
(qepHom 2017 p.17): It's used for things that are measurable or quantifiable but not necessarily countable. So you'd use it for things like speed or distance or the price of something: {Do vItlh} high velocity, {chuq vItlh} great range, great distance.
