{SuD} "gamble, take a chance, take a risk" in canon:

   DaSovbej'a'?  bISuDrup'a'?
   "Are you sure? Will you take that chance?" (Gen. Chang, ST6)

   space station Deep Space Nine is the gateway for the exploration,
   intrigue and enterprise that mark the continuation of the human
   adventure into space... (SkyBox DS99)


And for those interested, we also have the related verb {ngIl} "dare".

   Few humans dare to eat gagh, rokeg blood pie, or heart of targ. (S21)
