Never used in a sentence AFAIK.
HQ 12.4:8: Air, for example, comes into and out of the nose or mouth. The word for breath is {tlhuH}, and that for breathe is also {tlhuH}. To breathe in, or inhale, is {pur}; to breathe out, or exhale, is {rech}. To breathe noisily, or wheeze, is {jev} [...] To breathe even more noisily, or snore, is {wuD}.
PUN:
Idiom "saw wood" (i.e. snore)
Related words:
tlhov wheeze (v)
Qong sleep (v)
Dum nap (v)
