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.

Oh, wait, here's a better one: Hegh tlhIngan Segh 'ej maHemtaH 'e' wIHech. This one is clearly [Hegh tlhIngan Segh] 'ej [maHemtaH 'e' wIHech] and not [Hegh tlhIngan Segh 'ej maHemtaH] 'e' wIHech. Both the first [Hegh tlhIngan Segn] and second [maHemtaH 'e' wIHech] parts must be properly formed sentences, so maHemtaH 'e' wIHech must be a sentence.
