While I've always believed severing a mating bond was possible, I've never heard of the term "p'pil'lay". Where is that from? Fanfic? Novels? I know it's not in canon. Googling I've now seen it in online Vulcan dictionaries, but where is it from originally?
I have no idea. They didn't use the word in "Amok Time" when Spock rejected T'Pring. I just used the LVD.
