AFAIK our one example of {Sal} in canon refers to mountains:
SaqSub'e' muSHa'bogh
pawmeH leng qeylIS
HuDmey Sal ghIq ghIr
And Kahless traveled to
His beloved Saq'sub,
Over the mountains [PB]
Cf. another example of {ghIr} "descend", also WRT {Hudmey}:
HuDmeyvo' ghIr chaH
Over the hills, they came. [PB]
Related words:
pep raise (v)
toS climb (v)
jIm heave (aircraft) (v)
ghIr descend (v)
chagh drop (v)
pum fall (v)
Dej collapse (v)
