Example sentences
- Fermented meat is also known as qeyvaq Ha'DIbaH (Kayvak's food), named, for now forgotten reasons, after a famous ancient warrior. As with hunter's and emperor's food, the specific meat is used rather than the word Ha'DIbaH (meat), as in qeyvaq lIngta' (Kayvak's lingta). The Kayvak naming style does not apply to fermented plants; its use is restricted to meat. [KGT pp.91--92]
