Klingon word: 'Ib Part of speech: noun Definition: tub _______________________________________________ (KGT 97): The equipment needed for the preparation of Klingon food is rather minimal, consisting pretty much of pots or vats plus ... A square or rectangular tub used to hold food while it is fermenting is called a {'Ib}... (qep’a’ 2019): Typically, a {HaySIn} [bucket] is round (it could be a {'Ib rutlh}) and portable (so it's not a {qegh}). (IMO, HQ 8.3): The word for top is {yor} ... It is not the word used for lid or cover or cap (as in lid of a jar) or removable (and reusable) top of a box. The word for this kind of top or lid or cover is {yuvtlhe'}. The word for bottom, the counterpart of {yor}, is {pIrmuS}. This word refers to the underside of something, not the interior bottom (such as the bottom of a well or the bottom of a bowl where a few drops of milk remain after eating cereal). The word for the interior bottom of something is {bIS'ub}. If an item is located in the bottom of a box, it is located in the box's {bIS'ub}. If something is found underneath a box, it is found beneath the box's {pIrmuS}.
