(DSC/Qov "Si Vis Pacem, Para Bellum") (Felix, 10/25/2017): Lieven has written on Twitter that this word [{rIS} "make a cracking or snapping sound, emit a signal"] is similar to {tlhuD}. It used to be used to transmit audio, but now is apparently also a way to transmit life signs. (Will Martin, 11/5/2015): I’m pretty sure that Valkris used the word {jabbI’ID} in ST3.
