SuStel's right when he says that /naDev/ is a noun. but that doesn't
mean that /naDev/ isn't an adverbial. also /batlh/ is a noun and an
adverbial.
i know that it's confusing to list "noun" (part of speech) and
"adverbial" (part of sentence), but i tried to stick to the
terminology of tkd (english version) the way that y'all described it
to me.
