Never used in canon.
Cultural notes:
The verbs {nan} "use the fourth toe" and {nan} "gouge" are probably
etymologically related, since {nan} is used to refer to a particularly
effective martial arts kick. (HQ 10.2:11)]
Related verbs:
{Sup} jump
>Homonyms:
> pup (verb) - be perfect, exact, high resolution
