As used in canon:

   Hom Hutlhbogh ghab
   {ghab} that lacks bone. KGT

{ghab} = meat from midsection of animal (n.)

Mentioned in passing:

   Wind instruments (there is no overall term for them) range from the
   simple flute or fife ({Dov'agh}), generally crafted from a bone...
   (KGT 75)

Cf. also {melchoQ} "bone marrow".
