Klingon word: Du'Hom Part of speech: noun Definition: garden Source: qepHom 2016 _______________________________________________ (qep'a' 2019): There is also a slang expression {Du'Hom mI'} "random number" (literally "garden number"). (KGT 89): Agriculture ({Satlh}) is practiced to a certain extent, though it is common to gather uncultivated plants as well. Fruit or vegetables that come from a farm ({Du'}) are called either {naH} alone or {Du' naH} (farm fruit or vegetable or produce) ... The verb {yob} (harvest) is used to refer to gathering up plants or plant parts, whether from a field ({yotlh}) that has been sown or out in the wild. The verb meaning farm is {wIj}; that meaning plant (referring to vegetation of any kind) is {poch}. One may say {Sor poch} ("He/she plants a tree"), {lav poch} ("He/she plants a shrub"), and even {naH poch} ("He/she plants fruit or vegetables"), referring to the ultimate use of the plant as a food source. (Klingon Alice): For grow as in "I grow flowers" or "she grows carrots", use {reS} [lit. " conjure, cast a spell"}. (Weird, right? Maltz wasn't sure if this revealed something about early Klingons' understanding of how plants grow or if it was just a coincidence.) (KGT 97-8): A scooping implement, much like a garden trowel, used to remove food from a pot, is a bo'Dagh. (MO email to Lieven, 1/07/2011): [Maltz] said that ... {ghIn} ... could also refer to a group of buildings and accompanying grounds (gardens or whatever)--the whole defined area where the members of the religious community live or work or do whatever they do there.

We do know the names of some flowers -- {chal}, {tlheng'IQ} thranx, {tlhaghnay} night-blooming Throgni, {Du'Qam} and {Du'QamHom} -- though Klingons may consider these as wild flowers only. -- Voragh Ca'Non Master of the Klingons
