Type 5 noun suffixes go on the adjective, not the noun they modify. 'ay'
loS DoD loS yIlaD. Also, {jIH} is the object, not the subject of {ngoy'moH}.

I don't think {toy'} is the word you want. Perhaps something like {ghaq}
would be a better choice.

In constructions of this type, if the subject is a noun, it needs the
{-'e'} suffix. 'ay' jav DoD wej yIlaD.
[North America]Daq bIH wa'maH Daq'e'.
[Europe]Daq bIH cha' Daq'e'.
