Part of speech

noun

Pronunciation

d͡ʒornub

Sound out *jornub letter by letter:

• jd͡ʒj as in 'junk'
• ooo as in 'go'
• rrlightly trilled or rolled r
• nnn as in 'nay'
• uuu as in 'boot'
• bbb as in 'bay'

*jornub is here assumed to be a misspelling of jorneb. The word occurs in KGT, twice spelled jorneb (on page 57 and in the English--Klingon dictionary part). The fact that jorneb can be thought of as loosely consisting of the components jor explode and neb beak, bill, while nub be suspect, does not fit into the word also supports for its deprecation here.

• jorneb — warhead (of a torpedo)
