You're probably right in general, but I would point out that you can easily=
 "fill" the mouth of a bottle by putting a cork or other stopper in it (I b=
elieve we have seen many bottles on Star Trek that were closed with stopper=
s).

I think of the mouth of a bottle more like a {qung}, you can put your finge=
r through it and you cannot fill it. If you fill it, it's the bottle you fi=
ll, not its mouth.
Nevertheless, I'm sure Klingons have their own word for that, or call it li=
ke you did the "mouth" of the bottle. It doesn't sound correct to say "Ther=
e's a hole in the bottle." In that case it's broken :-)

By the way, I'm pretty sure you can {vegh} a {qung}, as long as it's large =
enough.

Lieven.
