Klingon word: po Ha'DIbaH
Part of Speech: noun
Definition: morning animal

Additional Notes:
HolQeD 10:4, p. 4: {matlh juppu' mu'mey}. Makes a particular ruckus at dawn. Maltz said he has also heard the phrase {po Ha'DIbaH}, literally "morning animal," used to refer to the {'uSgheb}. He thinks {po Ha'DIbaH} has some sort of literary source, since it is used in operas and plays but not often in everyday speech. Maltz supposed that {po Ha'DIbaH} could refer to a {jajlo' Qa'} as well.
