: Klingon word:   HochHom
: Part of Speech: noun
: Definition:     most, greater part
: 
: Additional Notes:
: HolQeD 4:3, and KGT.

As used in canon:

  wa'DIch tlhIngan Dujmey (*) luleghlu'pu'bogh rur qItI'nga' 
   Duj tera' vatlh DIS poH cha'maH wej HochHom lo'lu'taH. 
  Similar in configuration to the first Klingon vessels
   encountered, the K'Tinga-Class remained in use for most
   of the 23rd century. (SkyBox S15)

* This is probably just a publisher's typo for {tlhIngan Dujmey wa'DIch} "the
first Klingon vessels" and not a hapax adverbial usage meaning something like
"first seen" as some have postulated.
