Would there be a problem with a construction as the above ? On one hand, I can't be able to see anything grammatically wrong with it, on the other hand though, it seems rather strange seeing before the {'oHbe'} the {'e'}.
I think it's not okay because TKD says that 'e' is "used primarily, not exclusively, with verbs of thinking or observation" You might stick on "not exclusively", but it continues "They are always treated as the object of the verb, " and {'oH} is not a verb, and it also continues with "the verb always takes a prefix indicating a third-person singular object." which does also not apply to the pronoun used in a to-be-sentence. -- Lieven L.
