Not in that sentence. *ghorgh* is not an adverbial, so I can't invoke the rule in TKD Addendum 6.7 allowing objects with *-'e'* to move to the front. As I said, I was playing a little loose with the positioning rules. We don't ACTUALLY know whether *ghorgh* has any rules regarding its placement, so I took the liberty of putting the topic noun phrase before the *ghorgh.* If that's not allowed, then my sentence won't work. It might be the case that *ghorgh* follows the rules about putting time expressions before everything else.
And if it isn't the object (case in which it isn't necessary for it to be placed right before the {Dalo'bogh}),
instead of {*DaH ghogh HablI''e' Dalo'bogh: ghorgh Daje'?} *could we write {ghogh HablI''e' DaH Dalo'bogh: ghorgh Daje' ?} ?
If my sentence is valid, then so is this one. -- SuStel http://trimboli.name
