Sound out DavHam letter by letter:

• Dɖretroflex d (tongue curled back)
• aɑa as in 'father'
• vvv as in 'vow'
• Hxharsh h, as in Scottish 'loch' or German 'Bach'
• aɑa as in 'father'
• mmm as in 'moon'

• [...] covers the same semantic ground as both HoQ [~be honored falsely~] and Qaq [~behave falsely honorably~] (but not really mIl [~be formerly honored~]). DavHam is different from quvHa'ghach dishonor (noun) in that the latter does not imply seeming to be honorable or the appearance of honorability, but rather the lack of or loss of honor.
