'e' vIghel :) That was my orginal question, and currently there appears to be no
answer to it. We *may* be able to have a list of nouns as the second noun in a
noun-noun construction, but we don't know if we can do it in the first space. I
don't see how joj would work without the ability to do it because it obviously
needs a plural to go between... I guess we can't say:
vavwI' SoSwI' je juHDaq jIjaH
I go to my mother's and my father's house
How do we have a possessive that is possessed by more than on person?
Do we have canon for other noun phrases in the first slot? Can we say:
SuvwI' targh Soj vIlegh
I see the Warrior's targh's food
SuvwI' tIn targh mach Soj vIlegh
I see the big Warrior's small targh's food
