FYI I found one example of the {Hoch} modifying a NOUN+NOUN phrase : QaptaHvIS So'wI', Hoch jagh Dujmey DaQotlh. Disable all enemy ships while cloaked. (MKE) {Hoch jagh Dujmey} "all enemy ships" NOT *{jagh Hoch Dujmey}. Can anyone think of another example? ~ Voragh -----------------------------------Original Message----------------------------------- From: mayqel qunen'oS SuStel:
Once again your noun-scoping defies my senses. I would say this Hoch vIghro' mutmey all species of cat.
I too, like much more the solution of {Hoch vIghro' mutmey}, which you suggest. And in the past, I've though of placing the {Hoch} in the first position of a N-N-N construction, but here is another thing that confuses me. At the {Hoch vIghro' mutmey}, doesn't the {Hoch} *have* to act *only* on the {vIghro'} ? Doesn't the meaning *have* to be "the species of each cat" ? I think, something similar has been discussed in the past, but I still have trouble understanding whether the {Hoch} can act "simultaneously" on both the nouns that follow it, or whether it *has* to act only on the noun that is immediately next to it. ~ m. qunen'oS _______________________________________________
