AFAIK never used in a sentence.
HQ 10.4: Maltz blurted out that there are two common words for "mirror": {SIla'} and {neSlo'}. He said that a {SIla'} was typically larger than a {neSlo'}, but he wasn't sure if there was any other difference.
"[For] _The Final Reflection_ ... if reflection, as in image in a mirror is needed, [Maltz] offered {neSlo' tonSaw' Qav}." [Okrand to qurgh, 9/01/2010]
"We went with {neSlo' tonSaw' Qav} for the title of the book, since reflection, in this case, refers to version of *klinzha* that is played with a mirror." [qurgh, 9/01/2010]
*{neSlo' 'u'} is sometimes used on this list for Trek's "Mirror Universe".
