juHwI' uses the possessive ending reserved for beings capable of language, while juH for a clan confuses a dwelling with tuq.
Marc Okrand lists juH as “home” in The Klingon Dictionary. Canon gives the specialised forms juHHom “cottage,” juH'a' “mansion,” and juHqo' “homeworld,” but no source derives the root itself.
What does juH mean?

juH is pronounced /d͡ʒux/. The final H is the rough sound /x/, like the sound in Scottish loch.
How do you say “my home” in Klingon?

What words are formed from juH?
