The following sentences don’t bother me that much:<br>
<br>
{ngop wISay'moH}<br>
{Dulegh'a' negh?}<br>
{no' luqaw}<br>
{cha yIghuS!}<br>

But these seem downright weird:<br>
<br>
{nuqDaq 'oH ngop'e'?}<br>
{'Iv ghaH no'ra''e'?}<br>
{cha 'oH'a'?}<br>
{negh ghaHlaw'.}<br>
<br>
Do we have canonical evidence of pronouns used to stand in for irregular plural nouns?<br>
