This is the Klingon Word Of The Day for Saturday, September 2, 2006.
Category: Food
Klingon word: warjun
Part of Speech: noun
Definition: type of knife (used for food preparation)
Source: KGT (230 KE, 247 EK)
Swedish: ett slags kniv (används vid matberedning)

KGT p. 97. Food-preparation knives, of which there are many types, come in different sizes and shapes for different cutting tasks. For example, a {warjun} is a large, extremely sharp, square-bladed chopping implement (but for its short handle, it would probably be considered a kind of {'obmaQ} ["ax]).
