In a noun-noun construction, when introducing a preceding quantifier such
as {'op} or {Hoch}, is it better to put it in front of the whole phrase as
in a) below, or in front of the second element, as in b)?
In this example, I am trying to say "Some Klingon sentences", would that be=
:
a) {'op tlhIngan Hol mu'tlheghmey}
or
b) {tlhIngan Hol 'op mu'tlheghmey}
Sentence a) could be misinterpreted as "sentences of some Klingon
languages". This is also the reason why I am tending to choose b).
