[Tlhingan-hol] bor

SuStel ([email protected])



I just realized! The word {bor} "gurgle (stomach noise)" is a pun word referring to the English word "borborygmus": a rumbling or gurgling sound caused by the movement of gas in the intestines.

I've had this word on my dictionary app's favorites list for almost a year, and hadn't made the connection until now.
