>Klingon word: laQ

Used in canon:
chuyDaH yIlaQ
Fire the thrusters! (TKD)
muDDaq 'eDSeHcha lulaQlu'bogh: jav
Atmospheric Take-Off/Landing Thrusters ? 6 (KBoP)
Related verbs include {chu'} "activate", {rIH} "energize", {Huj} "charge (up)"
Don't confuse {laQ} with {meQ} "burn, be on fire", {baH} "fire (torpedoes,
etc.)" and {bach} "shoot/fire (phasers, disruptors, etc.)".
The general noun is {qul} "fire".
