: If you insisted on the original construction, "DughuHmoHbogh SoSlI'"
: would have been better placed first in the sentence. There is no example I
: know that justifies placing it in the middle. It is quite confusing there.
Not necesarily. >nuvpu' DughuHmoHbogh SoSli'< = "your mother warns you about
people". >nuvpu''e' DughuHmoHbogh SoSli'< = "the people your mother warns you
about". It's a perfectly legitimate and proper construction, so much so that
I'm not sure how else you'd say it.
