We have intercepted a massive signal. 	(DSC/Qov "Si Vis Pacem, Para Bellum")

(Felix, 10/25/2017):  Lieven has written on Twitter that this word [{rIS} "make a cracking or snapping sound, emit a signal"] is similar to {tlhuD}.  It used to be used to transmit audio, but now is apparently also a way to transmit life signs.

(Will Martin, 11/5/2015):  I’m pretty sure that Valkris used the word {jabbI’ID} in ST3.  I think it was the Klingon word created to fit her lip movements as she said the English word "transmission" on camera and later dubbed it into Klingon under Okrand’s direction.

TREK TRIVIA:
The Romulans routinely monitor the telemetry of Starfleet long-range automated probes. (TNG “Tin Man”)

"Sweep the area of the Antares transmission with our probe scanners, Mr Spock." (TOS "Charlie X")

No form of transmission can penetrate the Galactic Barrier. Deflectors register it, but sensors do not. (TOS "By Any Other Name")

Both of these have been used here since the very beginning of the tlhIngan-Hol list for years (decades really) faute de mieux.  [For the old-timers:  When was this list started? IIRC I joined it circa 1990.]
