AFAIK never used in a sentence.
Okrand, 7/26/09: A {vIlle'}, on the other hand, is definitely someone you want to have around - a follower, disciple, fan, admirer, minion.
"Marc suggested {boQ} or {cha'DIch} for the 'sidekick' idea I was asking about." (ghunchu'wI', 7/29/09)
Trek trivia:
In 2269 Dr. Sevrin and his followers stole the [private?] space cruiser Aurora in their attempt to find the mythical planet Eden. (TOS "The Way to Eden")
Similar words:
vIl someone or something one can always find around
qolqoS core, essence
tuqnIgh member of one's house
boQ aide
qoch partner
maqoch buddy, pal (close male friend of a male)
chaj close female friend of a female
