Never used in canon.

: No.  It is only a noun, the surface of the planet, the dirt you stand on.

Cf. also the nouns {lam} "dirt", {butlh} "dirt under fingernails", {puH}
"land", {ghor} "surface (of planet)", {Hatlh} "country(side)" and {yotlh}
"field".

Also some people on this list use *{yavDuj} for "car, automobile".
