noun-noun constructions and {-bogh} clause
We know that we can't say: {HoS'e' nuv mung} for "the origin of the person of power" But can we say: {HoS'e' 'aghbogh nuv mung} for "the origin of the power which is displayed by the person" ? I know that the meaning isn't the same between the two examples, but that's not important. What I'm wondering, is whether we can have a noun-noun construction, where the first noun is part of a {-bogh} clause, marked (that first noun} with a {-'e'}. ~ bara'qa'

So far as I know, using *-'e'* to disambiguate a relative clause does not give us license to use it before another noun in a noun-noun construction. *HoS 'aghbogh nuv mung.* -- SuStel http://trimboli.name
