Never used in canon.
Trek notes:
In VGR "Night" Chakotai says Captain Janeway is "stubborn as a
Klingon". Was this a common 24th century Starfleet simile or just an
indirect comment about B'Ellana (whom Chakotai knew well before both of
them joined Voyager's crew)? (This would of course be *{mul; tlhIngan rur}
in Klingon.)
