We can't? I thought {nuq} and {'Iv} just go into whatever noun spot
contains the missing information. Where is the rule that they can't be part
of a noun-noun construction, I must have missed it?
I would have expected the following to be grammatical:
{tIn 'Iv Duj} - Who's ship is big?
{Hab SoSwI' nuq} - My mother's what is smooth?

I would put {ghorgh} first (same with {chay'} and {qatlh}), so the listener
knows right away that it's a question, although as with a lot of the
chuvmey, they just "occur at the beginning of the sentence", and the
specific order is down to personal preference most of the time.

Since {nuqDaq} is a locative phrase just like {tera'Daq}, they can go
either way around, although I'd put it in the spot where's I'd expect the
answer to be:
tera'Daq nuqDaq mIl'oDmey tu'lu'? tera'Daq HuDaq mIl'oDmey tu'lu'.
