vuD is used in paq'batlh (paq'raD, Canto 13; page 137):
vaj ruS cher =91Iw
rap cha=92 ghot HoS rap cha=92 ghot vuD
chen yIn ruS
So the bond was sealed in blood
Of two equal in body and thought,
The bond of life.

AFAIK never used in canon, but I've seen Beginning Grammarians ask on the L=
ist:
nuq 'oH vuDlIj'e'?
vuDlIj yIja'!
Similar words:
qech idea (n)
ngoD fact (n)
Sov knowledge (n)
De' data, information (n)
yoj judgment (n)
qel take into account, consider (v)
As an exercise, how about translating Terence's pithy Latin {vIttlhegh}:
"Quot homines, tot sententiae."
Any takers?
