Perhaps the following is a way to annotate a compound noun which serves as subject: Using the annotation table one adds the SUBJ tag to the tags assigned to the suffix, and if there is no suffix, to the last element of the compound (which in Norwegian and other Germanic languages) will (in most cases) be the head of the compound.
See an illustration below.

In Bono.... In my earlier note on optative i explain that it is a command from third person to third person. In actual fact it is simply a command to another person to act and not neccessarily from third person to third person.
Hi Bright, I think the above is a short comment coming from you :=)
Optative
Optative is a verb modus, and as such part of verbal conjugation pattern, cross-linguistically speaking. Verb modus as such is a grammatical category that expresses the speaker's attitude. Some other modi are the
- Indicative
- Conjunctive
- Imperative
The Optative expresses what is desired or wished for, it can be expressed morphologically in form of an affix, or by additional word forms, such as particles.
German for example does not have an optative modus of the verb, instead model verbs are used. In addition German as a particle mal which seems to come close to expressing an Optative meaning:
- ich gehe (I go)
- ich gehe mal ( somthing like: Well, I think I want to go)
I will add the OPT tag to the TypeCraft glossery.
