Using genitive or dative cases is the most common way of creating compound words, but they can be joined together as well. The strong right-branching of Aoma is visible in the compounds in such manner that, when words are joined together, the head noun stays on the left while modifiers and the origin-suffix ''s*'' with correct head gender succeed it. | Using genitive or dative cases is the most common way of creating compound words, but they can be joined together as well.
