Notes
"So the cork is the 'thing which does close the hole (of the bottle)' ... qorgh is to "stop up, to fill a hole". You can stop up a hole, but not fill it in with dirt. That would be teb. qorgh is to stop up an opening somehow. It's like filling in, and not put stuff inside. So the word for the cork is a qorghwI'." [MO interviewed by Lieven, 11/12/2013]
"The word for top is yor ... It is not the word used for lid or cover or cap (as in lid of a jar) or removable (and reusable) top of a box. The word for this kind of top or lid or cover is yuvtlhe'." [IMO, HQ 8.3]
