Considering the pun, I'd recommend {SIla' 'u'} ;)

AFAIK never used in a sentence.

HQ 10.4:  Maltz blurted out that there are two common words for "mirror":  {SIla'} and {neSlo'}. He said that a {SIla'} was typically larger than a {neSlo'}, but he wasn't sure if there was any other difference.

"[For] _The Final Reflection_ ... if reflection, as in image in a mirror is needed, [Maltz] offered {neSlo' tonSaw' Qav}."  [Okrand to qurgh, 9/01/2010]

"We went with {neSlo' tonSaw' Qav} for the title of the book, since reflection, in this case, refers to version of *klinzha* that is played with a mirror."  [qurgh, 9/01/2010]

*{neSlo' 'u'} is sometimes used on this list for Trek's "Mirror Universe".
