[Steven Boozer]

Klingon word: ghan
Part of speech: verb
Definition: glance at, take a quick look at 
Source: qep'a' 25
_______________________________________________

AFAIK not used in a sentence.

PUN: "take a gander"

DO NOT CONFUSE WITH:
ghan  		be hectic, very active, lively (v) (qepHom 2016)
ghanHa'  	be peaceful, calm (v) (qepHom 2016)

SEE ALSO:
legh 		see (v)
bej 		watch (v)
nuD 		examine, look at, inspect (v)
chotlh 		stare at, gaze at, observe (v)
puS  		sight (with gunsight) (v)

jorchan  	view, scene, scenery, sight, landscape (n) (qep'a' 2018)
  - (Lieven < MO's qepHom 2018 Video Interview):  The difference between the two is that {jorchan} "refers to the view" of a landscape, "something you look at". It could be a city, a forest or whatever. The word {Hatlh} refers to the countryside where you can walk into. It is somehow the opposite of the city: Some people live in the city, other live on the {Hatlh}.
