Good job, a well-assembled and explained sentence from a lurker. You 
should post more!

The only change I suggest is, in your explanation include a hyphen to 
indicate suffixes and prefixes, e.g. -bogh and Da-. Otherwise they 
look like the homophonic words Da (behave as) and bogh (be born). For 
the same reason I name suffixes with the type and number, such as V9, 
i.e. type-9 verb suffix, and not just v.

Do you think a person attending a convention would be more likely to 
answer the sentence you wrote with the place they were staying for 
the purpose of attending the convention, or the place they normally 
stay when they are not at a convention? That's the problem people are 
trying to solve.
