Adverbs referring to adjectives
First we said, that an adverb describes the quality of the verb. Example: nom bo'Degh vISop quickly I eat the bird Then we said that an adverb can refer to the verb of a {-bogh} clause too. Example: nom bo'Degh'e' HoHta'bogh SoSwI' vISop quickly I eat the bird which was killed by my mother or I eat the bird which my mother quickly killed but now I need to ask.. Can an adverb refer to a be-verb which is acting as an adjective ? Example: tlhoy bo'Degh tIn vISop I eat the excessively big bird qunnoH jan puqloD ghoghwIj HablI'vo' vIngeHta'

I doubt it. I haven't seen anyone suggest this before, and Okrand hasn't done it. Use this instead: *tlhoy tInbogh bo'Degh vISop.* -- SuStel http://trimboli.name
