In TKD {pa'} is defined as "room". It is used to translate "chamber"
on the KBoP poster ({cha'puj pa'} = "dilithium chamber"). In KGT, it's
defined as "enclosed area" and marked as "(slang)" in the K-E side,
but not the E-K side.

So the "(slang)" in the definition above applies only to the last
definition, though the way it's written leaves this unclear. The
"source" is also misleading, as TKD defines it only as "room".
