If I'm reading the New Words List correctly. the five classic (Platonic)
polyhedra would be named as such:
qu'vu' -- tetrahedron
buq'Ir -- cube, hexahedron
chorgh mey' HoS yergh -- octahedron
wa'maH cha' mey' HoS yergh -- dodecahedron
cha'maH mey' HoS yergh -- icosahedron
Of course there are always the {wa'maH mey' yergh} and the {wa'vatlh
mey' yearghmey}. But they're not regular polyhedra. }}:-)
