KGT yIlaD:
Other regions have names that are distinct from the names of any districts
or cities within them, such as the large {Sa'Qej Sep} (Sakrej region),
several thousand kilometers east of the First City. The origins of most
Klingon place names are not known, having been lost to history. Sometimes,
however, the meaning of a place name is clear, such as the Sakrej region's
{HuD beQ yoS} (Flat Mountain district)" (KGT 17)
This region is the source of many odd pronunciations and grammar, some of
which have been more widely adopted as slang. (Cf. KGT 24ff. passim.)
