• Both 'Iv and nuq are treated as nouns as far as the pronominal prefixes are concerned. That is, they are considered third person. [TKD 6.4/p.69]

Dochvam nuq what is this (thing)? [CK]; qaStaH nuq what is happening? [TKD p.177]; acts as pronoun

nuq works as a pronoun (i.e. it can act as either a noun or a verb meaning what is …?) -- this means it probably can't be used in noun-noun constructions. A phrase like Dargh Segh nuq DaneH? would ungrammatical, as nuq would be interpreted as a verb, making the first part of the phrase mean what is the kind of tea? (not what kind of tea). The whole phrase is better rephrased as Dargh Segh DaneHbogh yIngu'!

• nuqneH — was willst du? (Begrüßung)
