lung
lizard

ghargh
serpent, worm

Someone on Star Trek somewhere along the line misinterpreted {ghargh} 
"serpent, worm" as "serpent worm," a particular kind of worm, and the 
bad pronunciation gave us {qagh}, which they pronounced like gaH or 
gagh. But the general word for a creature in the form of a serpent (like 
a snake) would be {ghargh}.
