ok, thanks; however another question came to mind: I understand why the {Dochmey mI'} is wrong/inappropriate for the intented meaning. But what if I wrote {Dochmey HochHom} for "almost all of the things" ? In this example, is the {HochHom} the head noun too ? On Tue, Nov 8, 2016 at 4:46 PM, SuStel <sustel@trimboli.name> wrote:

Impressive analysis. I could have never thought that something like this is happening.
However I need to ask you:
Does this mean that in any noun-noun construction, the head noun is the second one ?
It's always the last one. (Noun-noun constructions can be strung together; e.g. tlhIngan Hol yejHaD is a kind of yejHaD; not a kind of tlhIngan or a kind of Hol.)
