Klingon Word of the Day for Sunday, August 27, 2023
Klingon word: 'evtlhev
Part of speech: noun
Definition: base (chemical)
Source: qep'a' 27 [2020]
_______________________________________________
(qep’a’ 2020): This is really "base" — not the same as "alkali", but includes alkalis.
N.B. Do not confuse with the noun {waw'} "base (military term)".

Do we also have the word for "alkali" yet? It's not on the list of elements and chemical compounds at the Klingon Language Wiki: http://klingon.wiki/En/Chemistry .
