Klingon word: DoQmIv
Part of speech: noun

_______________________________________________

(Lieven, qepHom 2016):  When {DoQmIv'a'} is a big tub, then - of course - a {DoQmIvHom} is a small one, so it can be used for the meaning of a "bucket", or anything similar.

(MO, qepHom 2016):  when needed, distinguish by qualifiers:  {Say'moHmeH DoQmIv'a'}, {QalmeH DoQmIv'a'}
