While the usage of these rovers with main verbs and with type 2 suffixes or {-laH} is well attested, it occurred to me that nothing explicitly prevents {-be'} and {-qu'} from being added to ANY verb suffix. If this is possible, this would create quite interesting constructions.
For example:
{-chughbe'} "not if" = "regardless of" ?{-chughqu'} "intensively if" = "if and only if" ?{-pa'be'} "not before" = "after" ?
