AFAIK never used in canon.  (Anything in the paq'batlh?)

I've used {vuS} for "restrict".  Note however how Okrand translates "limited edition" in Monopoly:

  veymey puS neH chenmoHlu'pu' 
  Limited Edition.  MKE
  ("Only a few sets[?] have been made.")

Similar words to the noun "limit":

HeH 		edge, rim (n)
veH 		boundary, frontier, barrier, border (n)

Can anyone think of similar Klingon verbs?
