[tlhIngan Hol] question words in noun-noun constructions

Could we use question words in noun-noun constructions as in the following
examples?

Qob nuH nuq je
the weapon and what is dangerous?

SuSol tlhIH 'Iv je
you quarrel you and who?

maHIv maH 'Iv je
we attack we and who?

I can't see something grammatically wrong with the above, but the thing
which leads me to ask is that I can't find a "fluid" English translation
for these examples, so this makes me wonder whether there's something I'm
missing here.
