I think I know this, but I'll ask anyway..
Context:
There's an officer who is unfair, insubordinate, uncooperative; "a piece of work" as americans say.. And as soon as the enemies surround the ship he wants to surrender too. So the captain tells him:
"you're unfair, insubordinate, uncooperative.. all this I knew, but now I see that you're a coward too, and that is the worst of all" (meaning the worst of his traits).
So now, suppose we wrote:
{bImaybe', bItlhIv, bIyeqqangbe'taH; Hochvam vISov. 'a DaH latlh vItlhoj.. nuch SoH 'ej 'e' qab law' Hoch qab puS}
The question is whether this use of {'e'} in a law'/puS construction could be considered to be correct. But I think that it isn't, because in the slots of a law'/puS construction the only thing allowed is either a noun, or a pronoun as {jIH}, {SoH}, {ghaH}, etc, because pronouns can act like nouns too.
But since the {'e'} of a sao can only be a pronoun, then it can't be allowed in a law'/puS construction.
Am I right?
