In the following translation I've used [-ghach] on the verb [vang] with a suffix.
My question is adding a noun suffix to the [-ghach] construction. Is it allowed
in the exapmple bellow where I added [-Daj] to show the possesive? What about
adding [-mey] or [-pu'] to the end of the same [-ghach] construct?
I've read about the general controversy regarding [-ghach] so I've tried to minimize
the use and allways use a verb suffix.
Also is it acceptable to use [lo'] and [lo'be'] as adjective modifiers in this example?
