KGT 99:  A diner transfers a portion to his or her plate ... by simply grabbing the desired quantity of food with a hand... If necessary, two hands may be used to break off ({wItlh}) a slab of the desired fare.

KGT 84:  A larger animal may be sliced into pieces or a section of a plant may be broken off. This food is often described as {Soj tlhol} ("raw, unprocessed food"), as opposed to {Soj vutlu'pu'bogh} ("food that somebody has prepared").
