A bit more for those trying to figure out the relative strengths of Klingon
{mu'qaDmey}...
It seems that the TNG episode "The Defector" was also first time we heard
{petaQ}.
As I recall the scene, defecting Romulan General Alidar Jarok sees Worf in
Enterprise's sick bay and asks Riker, "Tell me, how do you allow this
Klingon *pahtk* to walk around in a Starfleet uniform?" Worf grunts
something threatening and Jarok replies, "Get this *tohzah* out of my
sight!" Riker smugly comments that "only a *veruul*" would say that,
trumping Jarok's knowledge of Klingon curses with his own knowledge of Romulan.
