<div>Imagine a situation in which a Romulan
challenges me to a duel. It's an honor thing, so
naturally, I accept, but I hold the Romulan in
such contempt that instead of asking someone
like you to serve as my second, I instead assign
that role to my pet mugato. Would I not describe
the mugato as <b>cha'DIchwIj</b>?</div>

<div>A {cha'DIch} in that context is a special title for a
specific role though, it's not just counting something. </div>

<p>It doesn't have to be. Since numbers can act like nouns</p>

<div>That was my point, yes. </div>

<p>I was just addressing the question about whether proper nouns or
titles might get special treatment. We've seen <b>cha'DIch</b>
used as an apparently special title, so I presented a few that
couldn't be interpreted as titles or nouns.<br>
