Re: nuqvo'

It *may* be that we can add {nuqDaq} to the three TKD examples. In
summary: AFAIK {nuqDaq} has never been used with any suffixes. Although I
would never expect to see *{nuqDaqDaq} "whereat" (?), I wouldn't be at all
surprised to see ?{nuqDaqvo'} "wherefrom, from where". The fact that we
haven't seen this form so far may well be a coincidence or, as we used to
say when I worked on a dictionary project for the ancient Levantine dialect
of Ugarit, an "accident" of the canon. (I.e. a particular subject just
isn't discussed in the surviving texts for whatever reason.)
Intuitively it seems like it should be correct. Perhapse someone can bring this up to MO at the qep'a'. I cannot be there.
