[Tlhingan-hol] Der

[lojmIt tI'wI'nuv]

Perhaps others have already known this, but I was just watching an old video on flying and when discussing dirigibles, contrasting them to balloons, the narrator pointed out that "Dirigible means steerable." The only kind of steering that a dirigible has is yaw. Though it's spelled beginning with "dir", the English pronunciation comes closer to the Klingon {Der}.
