Related verbs:
cho'    succeed (to authority)
gheS    assume duties of, take on responsibilities
Sugh    install (in office)"
moj     become

De'vID:
Is there any reason to believe that this means "relieve (from duty)" rather than "relieve (from pain, anxiety, distress, etc.)"?  Is the word "relieve" used in any of the Star Trek movie dialogue spoken by Klingons?


AFAIK it's never been used anywhere.  The only evidence - more like a hint really - is {SonchIy}.  Although how {Son} would be different from {gheS} or {cho'} is unknown.

Does it occur in the {paq'batlh}?
