Klingon word:   'Iv
Part of Speech: question 
Definition:     who? 
Source: TKD (116 KE, 161 EK)

Additional Notes:
TKD p. 69: For {'Iv} 'who?' and {nuq} 'what?' the question word fits into the sentence in the position that would be occupied by the answer.

[?]

Both {'Iv} and {nuq} are treated as nouns as fas as the pronominal prefixes are concerned.  That is, they are considered third person.
