womb

I couldn't find it in Taronyu's dictionary or the body-parts diagram.
[It would be nice if it related in some way to nokx (give birth).]

If there's anything for "belly", that could work too, but all I could find was "stomach" and I think that would give totally the wrong idea.

Is there any generic word for internal body organs?

There is no current word for 'womb', but I believe it is a word that has been asked for in the 'lexical expansion project'.

There is a word for them, but only if you are using them for food - vey Vey, as I understand it, is a generic term for any animal tissue intended for food. Thus, you would call a dead animal (with its internal organs included) that is about to become food vey, but a steak cut from that same animal (muscle meat, which is what we typically refer to as 'meat') is tsnga. A slice of roasted liver from the same animal I would call vey, but some here would also call that tsnga.

There are at this time just three words for specific internal organs- txe`lan for 'heart', tsopì for 'lung' and ngäng for 'stomach'.
