As described in KGT:

   The general term for a pot is {'un}. Pots that may be put on top of a
   fire in order to heat their contents are made of metal ({baS}); others
   may be made of either metal or ceramic material ({nagh} [literally,
   "stone"]). A {bargh} is probably the most frequently used pot. It is
   rather large and has a flattened bottom.  (KGT 97)

   In some regions ... a ceramic {bargh} is called a {chor} (literally,
   "belly") or {chor bargh} ("belly pot"). (KGT 28)
