Never used in canon.

Mentioned in KGT (p.48):

   Common militaristic acts also have associated terminology, both verbs
   ({DoHmoH}, "drive back"; {Hub}, "defend"; {yot}, "invade"; {weH}, "raid"
   ... {HIv}, "attack, assault"; {Sev}, "contain"; {HeD}, "retreat, with-
   draw") and nouns ({yot}, "invasion, raid, incursion"; {Hub}, "defense").

Do not confuse with the noun {Sev} "bandage".

N.B. for the general, non-military "contain (have inside)" use {ngaS}.
