   {waH} means "try out, use (experimentally)" and it is also the word
   used for "taste" in the sense of trying out food to see if it's
   prepared properly or to find out if you like it. [E.g.]
      qagh vIwaH
      I taste the gagh ("I try out the gagh [to see how it tastes]")
   [msn.onstage.startrek.expert.okrand 7/01/97]

Cf. also {nID} "attempt, try"; {ngong} "experiment"; {chov} "assess, 
evaluate, test"; {tob} "test conclusively" and {Daj} "test inconclusively".
