Klingon word: pom Part of speech: noun Definition: dysentery _______________________________________________ AFAIK never used in a sentence. KLINGON BIOLOGY: (HQ 12.4:8): The verb meaning gurgle, specifically applied to one's stomach gurgling or talking, is {bor}. When air (or gas) from the stomach works its way up and comes out of the mouth (often noisily), one is said to {ruq} belch. Maltz said it is acceptable to refer to this gas as {SIp}, a general word for gas of any kind, but that gas produced within the body is known as {Qep'It}. When, rather than gas, undigested or partially digested food comes up, one is said to {'em}, vomit, and the matter being vomited, that is, vomit, is called {quy'Ip}. Because Klingons have redundant stomachs they rarely get nauseous.
