I’m not sure what you mean by “at the opposite side of me”. I=Given your scenario I would be more likely to say {taw latlh DopDaq} “on the other side of the road” or “across the street” (i.e. “from me” being implied). We even have a similar sentence in the paq’batlh: Sepvetlh latlh DopDaq Hatlh lengtaHvIS qeylIS On the other side of the land, Kahless traveled the lands (PB) Voragh _____________________________________________________________ From: SuStel On 3/10/2021 7:59 AM, mayqel qunen'oS wrote: I'm standing at one side of the road, and I want to say "at the opposite side of me is a colorful alien" Is there any reason against saying {jIH Daq DopDaq} for "at the opposite location of me"? Or is it that the only kind of noun which can follow a pronoun, is one of the "classic" locative nouns (e.g. bIng, Dung, retlh, Hay, etc)? So far as we know, yes, only the nouns that give a relative location let you say pronoun noun.
