Source: qep'a' 24 [2017]
_______________________________________________
From https://www.kli.org/activities/qepmey/qepa-chamah-losdich/qepa-chamah-losdich-new-words/ :
taq be scarred (v)
taqmoH scar (v)
mIvwa' scar (result of a wound, regardless of how the wound occurred) (n)
roptoj scar (result of some sort of disease, infection, etc.) (n)
"So if you have a scar that you got in a fight, that could be either a {mIvwa'} or a {SanDIy}. If you don't know whether someone's scar resulted from a wound or a disease, it's probably safest to go with {mIvwa'}. If the person's scar is actually a {SanDIy}, he/she will, under most circumstances, clarify this for you. If it's a {roptoj}, he/she may let the 'misdiagnosis' slide since, as we all know, {ropchoHbe' tlhInganpu'}."
