• The word Qop means be worn out and is usually applied to old weapons, tools, mechanical devices, and the like. It is also used to mean be dead, but only in reference to an animal that one was expecting to eat live. If a bowl of dead qagh (gagh, serpent worms) is placed before a Klingon, the disappointed diner will probably criticize the cook for preparing qagh Qop (dead gagh). The normal way to say be dead, referring to a person or animal, is by using the form Heghpu' (has died): Heghpu' SuvwI' (The warrior has died). It is not appropriate to say SuvwI' Qop (dead warrior, worn-out warrior.) [KGT p.162]

• Hegh — morte
