/Additional reason/ is *latlh meq.*
/Because of this thing/ is *Dochvammo'.*
Substitute /additional reason/ in for /thing:/ *latlh meqvammo'*/because
of this additional reason./
Don't get confused by English (or Greek!) word order. The /because of/
and /this/ apply to the entire phrase /additional reason./ There is no
independent phrase /this additional/ here, for instance.
