Klingon Word of the Day for Saturday, July 19, 2025

Klingon word: qeQvav
Part of speech: noun
Definition: thingamajig
Source: qep'a' 29 [2022]
_______________________________________________

SEE SYNONYM:
tIlqemchaw'  		thingamajig (n) qep'a' 2022

PUN: "Coincidence: this is 'Whatchamacallit' spelled backwards." (De'vID 8/23/2023)

AFAIK neither has been used in a sentence.

(Lieven < MO, 3/22/2021):  {vIqraq} is defined as "artifact, work of art," but it's further clarified as: "handicraft, gizmo, gadget, contraption, machine, device, etc. That is, it refers to something manufactured or made." So I think it could be used for a "product" (assuming the product was something physical).

SEE ALSO:
janHom 		[(mechanical) gadget,  gizmo]
vay' 			something/anything (n)
'aH 			paraphernalia (n)
Doch 			thing (n)
