Klingon word: Dang
Part of speech: verb
Definition: focus
Source: qep'a' 28 [2021]
_______________________________________________
(qep'a' 2021): Make (an image) less blurry. This is used where the subject focuses an object: "I focus my eyes", "I focus the camera", "I was so drunk I couldn't focus my eyes". Objects cannot focus themselves. "My eyes focus" is wrong."
AFAIK not used in a sentence.
SEE ALSO:
jo' zoom in on (v)
