Thanks for clarifying my misunderstanding. I was unaware that {-‘e’} didn’t work like other type 5 suffixes that give a noun a non-subject or object reason to participate in the sentence.

It seems to make it COMPLETELY different from any other Type 5.

Why not make it a Type 6 and give it a special rule preventing it from being used with any Type 5?

Is this meant to be a noun-noun construction? That doesn't work, because you can't put a type 5 noun suffix on the first noun of a noun-noun construction.

If it's meant to be two components of part of a larger sentence, like cheS'e', Sopbogh Hoch vIlegh As for rabbits, I see all which eat, remember that Okrand told us that using a type 5'd topic at the beginning of a sentence that isn't a subject or object would be highly marked. It's basically not a real option.

The only thing that cheS'e' Sopbogh Hoch would normally be interpreted as is rabbit which everyone eats. cheS'e' Sopbogh Hoch vIlegh I see the rabbit which everyone eats.
