Well, as I noted earlier, I suspect that certain verbs might
work better than {Sov}. For example, I think it works with
{jang}, as in {yuch Soppu' 'Iv 'e' vIjanglaHbe'.} Even that
sounds strange to me, but not nearly as strange as anything else
presented, since the second verb does address the question and
not a pseudorelational pronoun/question word, and it is not a
direct quotation in the usual sense. >>
----------------peHruS here:
The reason I would not choose to use {jang} as an example is that it is a
verb of speaking. At least I use it according to the same tlhIngon Hol
grammar rules I apply to {jatlh}, {ghel}, etc. regarding NOT taking the
quotation itself as object.
