Used in canon:

   HIHotQo'
   Don't touch me! CK

Discussed by Okrand:

   {Hot} means "feel, touch", not "feel emotions".
    [startrek.klingon 12/12/1996]

For the latter use {DuQ} "touch (emotionally)" or {nong} "be passionate".

For special types of touching, see {qotlh} "tickle", {yach} "pet, stroke", 
{roS} "lick", etc.
