I think you're probably right: if a Klingon doing English at school was told
to translate "tear" into Klingon, I'd guess that he'd write {mIn bIQ}. Good
suggestion.

Another good idea. Of course, if a Klingon sees a human crying, he might
turn to his friend and jokingly say {yIlegh, nIj tera'ngan mInDu'} "look,
the Terran's eyes are leaking"!

Make my eys stop leaking, so I can see!
Hmmmm... this has interesting possibilities...
