constructions. but can we have the {ghorgh} and {nuqDaq} existing next<br>
to nouns ?<br>
<br>
for example can we say:<br>
<br>
{ghorgh DaSjaj mamej}<br>
when do we depart on monday ?<br>
<br>
{DaSjaj ghorgh mamej}<br>
on monday when do we depart<br></blockquote><div><br>I would put {ghorgh} first (same with {chay'} and {qatlh}), so the listener knows right away that it's a question, although as with a lot of the chuvmey, they just "occur at the beginning of the sentence", and the specific order is down to personal preference most of the time. <br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">

{nuqDaq tera'Daq mIl'oDmey tu'lu'}<br>
where on earth someone finds bears ?<br>
<br>
{tera'Daq nuqDaq mIl'oDmey tu'lu'}<br>
on earth where someone finds bears ?<br></blockquote><div><br>Since {nuqDaq} is a locative phrase just like {tera'Daq}, they can go either way around, although I'd put it in the spot where's I'd expect the answer to be:<br><br>tera'Daq nuqDaq mIl'oDmey tu'lu'? tera'Daq HuDaq mIl'oDmey tu'lu'.<br><br>qurgh</div></div></div></div>
