> Klingon word: HIj
> Part of speech: verb
> Definition: deliver, transport goods

As used in canon:

  yIHmey DaHIj'a'
   Are you transporting tribbles? CK
  ghobe', yIHmey vIHIjbe'
   No, I'm not transporting tribbles. CK

  rura' pente'Daq Soj, Doch, <luch?> vIqIch 
  "We is condemning [[sic! for {vIHIj}] food... 
   things and supplies to Rura Penthe." ST6

N.B. This was an intentionally bad translation by Okrand because Uhura's Klingon was rusty.


Related verbs:
{qeng} "carry, convey" and {Qay} "transfer"

Related nouns:
{tep} "cargo, goods"
