"Suq chIm"?
I've just seen the ST:TNG episode "Parallels", in which Worf asks Troi
to be what sounded like "Suq chIm" to his son, a relationship which he
described in Federation as "surrogate mother". TKD suggests several
possible readings of the word, but the only one whose meaning is at all
plausible ("SoS chIm") definitely has a second consonant different from
what I heard. Is the correct reading known?
SoS chIm empty mother
Surchem force field
Su' chIm ready! be empty!
Sut chIm empty clothing
SuchIm you are empty
SoQ chIm empty speech
