I must correct myself, {nur} is a word listed in TKD and means 
"dignity". DopDaq qul yIchenmoH QobDI' ghu'. I noticed this word because 
the german translation for "dignity" and "pride" are very close and can 
be the same. In the draft for the opera, it was used to translate 
"pride" like this:

   "We will avenge your stolen pride."
   {nurraj nIHlu'ta'mo' manoD}

   "with it I restore pride and values of the Klingon empire"
   {tlhIngan wo' nur ghob je HoSmoH quvvam}

Quvar.
