{mov} reminds me of a Klingon word we really should have. In TNG "Ethics" is a close-up of Worf's bare feet, and he has a lump of flesh about a centimeter tall on top of each foot at the location corresponding to the {DaSpu'} on a Klingon boot.* I feel certain there is a Klingon word for this anatomical feature.

*I can't help but imagine this anatomical feature is the vestige of a claw, and that Klingon bootspikes celebrate (and replace) this former claw and are constructed to avoid unnecessary discomfort. Worf's Starfleet boots lacked spikes, but presumably they fit comfortably.
