• Literally meaning be solid, as opposed to gaseous or liquid, Sub, in its slang usage, may be applied to a person. Thus, SuvwI' Sub is brave warrior (literally, solid warrior; SuvwI', warrior) and Sub SuvwI' means The warrior is brave (literally, The warrior is solid). It is inappropriate to use the word to describe anything other than a person; a phrase such as may' Sub (may', battle) would mean only solid battle and would probably be considered a meaningless utterance. The slang meaning of Sub is probably influenced by the phonetically identical noun Sub, meaning hero. Nonslang equivalents for Sub are yoH (be brave) and jaq (be bold), which can be used pretty much interchangeably. [KGT pp.165--166]

Sub yaS the officer is brave; person is subj.
