Doubts in some words



   Greetings!!

    I would like a short explanation about the words above.
I was studing the lexicon and due the idiomatic expressions 
and my poor english knoledge, some words seem identical and 
they are confusing me. I would like that you give me some 
exemples in order to clarify their meaning.

'oy' - be sore /// rIQ - be injured
rIgh - be lame /// Duy' - be defective
jum - be odd /// Huj - be strange
ngoj - be restless /// boH - be impatient
non - be rotten  /// Doy - be tired
yon - be satisfied /// puQ - be fed up
mIgh - be evil /// joch - be harmful /// naS - be vicious 
Hab - be smooth /// tun - be soft

nIt - be pure, not corrupted -> could mean virgin too?
jej - be sharp -> refers to blades in general?
yatlh - be pregnant -> refering only to beings or it can be apply
        to anything else (prolific, abounding, important, etc)?

and finally (for instance), could you give me an example 
of the use of this word:

tlher - be lumpy


once again, thank you very much!

Edy
