Never used in canon.
Related verbs:
{Qan} protect; {toD} rescue, save; {ngIv} patrol; {yoD} shield
The derived noun is {'avwI'} "guard". (From their role in "Conversational
Klingon" and "Power Klingon", {'avwI'pu'} may also be the Klingon
equivalent of police. Compare Irish *garda* "guardian, police officer".)
