So basically, to get a sentance that refers to liking a color a little i would leave out a noun and it'd be correct? (I understand now that i can refer to a pink object by using a noun, but is the first sentance correct for liking red only a little? lol)

Adverbs modify the entire phrase, so your sentence
reads "I like red a little" and not *"I like a
slightly red (thing)." BTW, {Doqqu'} is a verb,
and you actually need a noun to be paired with it
and be the object of {vIparHa'}, for example:
{loQ Dochmey Doqqu' vIparHa'}. And, yes, you
do pronounce both q's. I do it by making a
little pause between the two. I think you
can also lengthen a single q.
