Compound sentences are described thus in TKD: "Two sentences may be joined together to form a longer compound sentence. Both sentences must be able to stand alone as properly formed sentences." Now see this from KGT: *juDev 'ej Dujvam ra'wI' DagheS 'e' vItlhob*/I ask you to lead us as commander of this ship./ In order for this canonical utterance to be legal according to TKD, *juDev* and *Dujvam ra'wI' DagheS 'e' vItlhob* must both be "properly formed sentences."
I'm going to take this one back. The formation is apparently *[juDev 'ej Dujvam ra'wI' DagheS] 'e' vItlhob,* which makes a compound sentence the first sentence of the SAO. In compensation, I'll point out an example of using a purpose clause on an SAO: *bIQapqu'meH tar DaSop 'e' DatIvnIS*/to really succeed, you must enjoy eating poison./ This is *bIQapqu'meH [tar DaSop 'e' DatIvnIS],* not *[**bIQapqu'meH tar DaSop] 'e' DatIvnIS/./* -- SuStel http://trimboli.name
