He could have said simply, {QamchIy 'uQ'a'} "the feast of Qam-Chee."

Later on he uses a title {SIqral bIQtIq ghom} "Assembly at the River 
Skral." Why didn't he say {SIqral bIQtIqDaq ghom}? That even works with 
{ghom} as a verb.

And then later is {SIqral bIQtIq may'} "The Battle at the River Skral," 
and not *{SIqral bIQtIqDaq may'}.

What do noun-noun constructions have to do with whether these are 
complete sentences? {nuH pegh} means "secret of the weapon" whether it's 
in a complete sentence or not. *{qamchIyDaq 'uQ'a'} is wrong, according 
to TKD, whether it's in a complete sentence or not.
