Is case compounding possible?
Case compounding is usually understood as attachment of multiple case markers to a noun stem that make up a phonological word. A type of case compounding is case-stacking, when independently occurring case affixes are used to describe a complex trajectory, typically expressing combination of the meanings of the two affixe, as in example (1).
(1) Udmurt (Arkhangelskij & Usacheva 2019)
gurt-len-ez-len**
village-GEN-POSS.3SG-GEN
‘of the one that belongs to the village’
Coding. The value is '1' if at least two case markers can be attached to the noun. The prerequisite is that the examples contain proper case endings.
