AFAIK never used in canon.

PUN:
"the Tasman Sea, which separates Australia and New Zealand. Both Kiwis and us Aussies often refer to the other country as being 'across the ditch'."  (QeS, 1/26/2012)

Okrand also revealed two new qualities in the same post to Agnieszka which may be relevant:

jaQ 		be deep (v)
wan 		be straight (v)

Similar words:

Qargh 	fissure (n)
ngech 	valley (n)
'och 		tunnel (n)
DIS 		cave (n)
