Okrand has released hundreds of new words lately, which are really
helpful for daily use, but we are still missing simple words like
"fridge" and "diapers".

Only TKD and KGT.

Yes, indeed. Many people would volunteer to do that, even Okrand, but
it's a question of money and copyright. But I think that nobody actually
has asked Paramount.
> * No word for ground vehicles, so members had to use {Duj} = "ship" to mean "car".
See the Talk Now CD, including word like "train" and "railway station".

See paq'batlh, which uses the word {jul} for "sun".
