[tlhIngan Hol] expressing "body parts" {'ay'Du'} or {'ay'mey}

I've obviously forgotten that too..

On the other hand though, perhaps there's an explanation, since a side
of the body is just a surface/area, and not an organ. But if {'ay'}
could be used as a part of a noun-noun construction to indicate "body
part" as in {porgh 'ay'}, then it would be in reference to a structure
performing a function, instead of just an area.

Oh, well.. I guess the only way to know for sure, is if 'oqranD
clarified the matter, or created a word for "organ".
