juHqo' Qo'noSvo' loghDaq lengtaHvIS tlhInganpu'
During the (aggressive) expansion of the Klingon people from their homeworld of Kronos into space... SP1

Note that only one -vo’ is used. (This is from our X-vo’ Z-Daq discussion of a few weeks ago.)

Note that this is true apposition:  A = B. Both A and B refer to the exact same thing:  juHqo’ = Qo’noS “Kronos, the Homeworld”.  A more familiar example would be names; e.g. “Worf’s wife, Jadzia” or “the Starship Enterprise” (i.e. a specific ship).

The examples I posted before weren’t apposition but more a narrowing of focus – there’s probably a grammatical name for this -- like a postal address.  For example:  Milky Way Galaxy, Sol System, Earth, European Union, Greece, Athens, Postal Area 14, Archimedes Street, Building No. 123, Apartment 4B.  Each part is a subset of the one before.

Thank you voragh. Are there canon examples of nouns in apposition, with type-5 suffixes other than {-Daq} ?
