[Tlhingan-hol] Klingon Word of the Day: nav

[Felix Malmenbeck]

«qul naj» was one of the phrases we did for the book.

It's actually a bit risky, since «naj» has never been used as a noun in canon, though it has on Star Trek.
However, if it turns out that using «naj» that way is wrong, one might imagine that it actually means "she/he/it dreams fire".
