According to pg 55 of TKD, {je} after nouns is strictly a conjuction for
nouns.
{pa' chu' neH be'nI'wI' je} sounds like "My sister and wants a new room."
It looks like a word was left out in both languages. While I wouldn't go so
far as to say that {je} following a verb is the *only* way to say "also", I
would definitely say that {je} can't be used after only a single noun.
Keep 'em coming. This is fun. }}: )
