{ghargh} "serpent, worm" TKD - note the comma. (Okrand also calls them
"serpent worm(s)" as one word elsewhere. Is the comma a typo in
TKD?) When {gharghmey} are processed as food, they are called {qagh}
*gagh*. {raHta'} *racht* is another type of food worm. There's also the
{reghuluS 'Iwghargh} "Regulan bloodworm".
If it's larger than a worm - and Klingon serpent-worms are fairly large -
we can use *{ghargh'a'} for snakes, eels, etc.
