QeS lagh,
How about when the phrase is the subject? E.g., {Hoch Soj Sop mIvDaq yIH}
(The tribble in the helmet ate all the food) or {Duj leghlu'meH Qap telDaq
wovmoHwI'mey} (Wing lights function to make the ship visible). I'm not saying
these are legitimate sentences; I don't think they are. I'm just offering a case
where the locative noun can't be considered a sentence modifier due to its
location.
