Agreed. Like Alan wrote it a few days ago, we don't even have an English
word for oomox.

I haven't checked, but simply because I lack time at this moment. The
only way to find that out is to watch all latest shows and think about
how tey can be translated into Klingon.

We didn't have much Klingons since DSC though. There were only very few
situations in LDS.

Maybe it's a reference to the Extended corpus projekt, a list of Klingon
words invented by authors. That might indeed be an interesting place to
start. Also, one could check all those terms wehich we have labeled as
not canon (in boQwI' for instance).

But of course, those might be unknown dialects, so I see no reason to
adapt them to tlhIngan hol.

I suggest browsing Memory alpha for Klingon topics and see if we have
Klingons words for them. I'm sure there are many.
