All that works for names of countries.  BTW, we can also make it clear, if
necessary, that we're naming a country by using the haim.   Japanhaimzo.
Same applies to other geographical things.  Xikagoceqzo.  Chicago(city).
Same for rivers, mountains, states, etc.
Shouldn't these be Japanzohaim and Xikagozoceq? The forms listed above should refer to "Go-Bread-Country" and whatever the other one would parse as.

Hey, you're right.  So a name can be part of a compound, and the compound is not a name.  That's better.

I think I agree, BTW, with the good Doctor, that 'se' is more euphonic for the name suffix.  Anybody else?
