>Klingon word:   laQ
>Part of Speech: verb
>Definition:     fire, energize (e.g., thrusters)

Used in canon:

   chuyDaH yIlaQ
   Fire the thrusters! (TKD)

   muDDaq 'eDSeHcha lulaQlu'bogh: jav
   Atmospheric Take-Off/Landing Thrusters ? 6 (KBoP)

Related verbs include {chu'} "activate", {rIH} "energize", {Huj} "charge (up)"

Don't confuse {laQ} with {meQ} "burn, be on fire", {baH} "fire (torpedoes, 
etc.)" and {bach} "shoot/fire  (phasers, disruptors, etc.)".

The general noun is {qul} "fire".
