As used in canon:

   SuyDuj DaQaw'chugh qagh DaHoH
   If you destroy the merchant ship, you kill gagh. KGT

Which employs an idiom meaning that "destroying the merchant ship is 
contrary to the best interests of the current mission" (KGT p.118).

Cf. also {tongDuj} "freighter" and {tepqengwI'} "cargo carrier".
