_______________________________________________
(Lieven, 12/07/2010): The word {buq} could be bag, sack, pouch or even pocket. When clarity is needed, one could say, for example, {yopwaH buq} "pants pouch" or {wep buq} "coat pouch" for "pants pocket" or "coat pocket," but when the context is clear, {buq} alone would suffice for pocket.
SEE:
wep jacket, coat; shirt with sleeves (regional) (n)

- leng buq suitcase (n)
- QongDaq buq sleeping bag, pillow (n)
