[Tlhingan-hol] Klingon Bird-of-Prey Haynes Manual

[Felix Malmenbeck]

I'm afraid I don't have the book in front of me, but the word is «petqaD», which is a medical instrument used to mend bones.

Fits the proper tlhIngan Hol template (unlike all the other new words in the book).
Also — as Quvar pointed out to me — it contains a very okrandesque pun ;)

Nope.  As I wrote in my message:

I was referring to the same word that loghaD discovered.
