Something interesting in Tagalog is, Nouns can be preceeded by adjectives
or vice versa:
Wikang Pambansa - National Language
Pambansang Awit - National Anthem
Tanikalang Ginto - Golden links (tanikala - chain, ginto - gold)
Which is something I like, and will probably add into Saalangal (as it
is, adjectives preceed nouns, right now, but this way, it adds
flexibility, and also can make things sound better)
