Never used in canon.

Related verbs:

{Qan} protect; {toD} rescue, save; {ngIv} patrol; {yoD} shield

The derived noun is {'avwI'} "guard".  (From their role in "Conversational 
Klingon" and "Power Klingon", {'avwI'pu'} may also be the Klingon 
equivalent of police.  Compare Irish *garda* "guardian, police officer".)
