lujang maS'e' loQ So'be'bogh QIb lurur ghunchu'wI': That's a very good example. Topicalizing the object maS and placing it before the adverbial loQ avoids/resolves the potential ambiguity of whether or not the adverbial applies to the main verb rur.
Initially, reading the comment of ghuchu'wI', I was inclined to dismiss it thinking that "it cannot be, there still has to be some ambiguity". But as hard as I tried to find this ambiguity I couldn't. So I started wondering why that is. Finally I came to the conclusion that in cases like these, the ambiguity vanishes for the simple fact that the adverb isn't in the appropriate slot for an ambiguity to exist. There are two slots for an adverb: Slot A: At the beginning of the sentence Slot B: After a topicalized object Ambiguity can exist only when there's an adverb in Slot A, for the simple reason that unless an adverb is an adverb referring to a verb, which adverb follows the topicalized object of that verb, there's no way for that adverb to occupy the slot between that verb and its' topicalized object. So, now I understand the comment of ghunchu'wI'. -- Dana'an https://sacredtextsinklingon.wordpress.com/ Ζεὺς ἦν, Ζεὺς ἐστίν, Ζεὺς ἔσσεται· ὦ μεγάλε Ζεῦ
