: Klingon word:     qurgh
: Part of Speech:   noun
: Definition:       bean(s)
: Additional Notes: KCD and KGT.

"a bean (which, in this case, may mean the pod or the seed or seeds in it or
both) is a {qurgh}" (KGT p.88) 

You can add {-mey} to make it clear that you're talking about more than one
bean. (KCD)

  vIno'va' qurgh 
  finova beans (KCD)

"If not cleaned properly, the finova bean can be deadly. Commander Klevis was
forced to kill his cook after a badly-prepared batch of finova killed both his
gunner and first officer." (KCD)
