Another example of a fixed feature not using a suffix is on the Bird of Pre=
y poster: tlhIngan juHqo'Daq tlhIng yoSDaq 'oH toQDuj chenmoHlu'meH Daq wa'=
DIch'e'.

SkyBox 99 had this, referring to Deep Space Nine: qIb HeHDaq, 'u' SepmeyDaq=
 Sovbe'lu'bogh lenglu'meH He ghoSlu'bogh retlhDaq 'oHtaH. Another possibly =
bad data point, since Deep Space Nine is technically capable of limited mov=
ement, even though it really is a fixed feature.

But SkyBox S27 had an unambiguous example: pa' 'oHtaH vaS'a''e'.

Basically, it=E2=80=99s a mess.

"Where is the bathroom?" {nuqDaq 'oH puchpa''e'}
Any examples where we're not asking questions?
