KGT 85: The closest equivalent to "sweet" is probably {na'ran rur} ("resembles a *naran*," a fruit whose juice is sometimes added to sauces as a contrast to the other flavors.) Interestingly, many human visitors seem to really enjoy the juice of the *naran* all by itself, particularly in the morning, though Klingons find this practice most peculiar.
