{mebpa'mey} is in KGT.  {muDDuj} is, I believe, a convention on this list.

Some will say that you can't create compound nouns (TKD 3.2.1) like this; we 
can only use what we're given.  TKD describes them, but doesn't give 
instructions on forming them (or prohibit their productive formation).  What 
do you think?

{chuvmey}, the noun meaning "leftovers," is only a grammatical term.  It 
refers to words that are not nouns or verbs (TKD 2, 5).  As far as we know, 
we cannot use this word for food.
