: Additional Notes:
: KGT.  See also {vutmeH 'un} and {vut'un}.


  "The equipment needed for the preparation of Klingon food is rather
  minimal, consisting pretty much of pots or vats plus cutting and
  stirring implements of various sorts. The general term for a pot is
  {'un}. Pots that may be put on top of a fire in order to heat their
  contents are made of metal (baS); others may be made of either metal
  or ceramic material ({nagh} [literally, 'stone']). A {bargh} is
  probably the most frequently used pot. It is rather large and has a
  flattened bottom. The smaller {nevDagh} is characterized by its V-
  shaped handles, termed {DeSqIvDu'} ..." (KGT p.97)

See also the following regionalisms for types of {barghmey}:

  {chor bargh}  ceramic flat-bottomed pot
  {mIv bargh}   metal flat-bottomed pot
