Paul, you are using grammatical terms that can be construed many different ways. I don't think it is the rigid box you have assigned to it.
A substantive noun is one that is tangible, a captive and a lord are both substantive nouns.
An adjective noun is one that can be perceived as both noun and adjective, captive and lord are both adjective nouns.
And of course, captive and lord are both simply nouns.
Captive has a verb in the same root, presumably meaning to "capture"; captive is the noun, capture is the verb; two different paradigms, but each derived from the same base root, Sh-B-A.
Lord has no apparent verb in the same root as M-R-A, but it doesn't matter. If two noun paradigms match, they both don't have to have a verb paradigm as well.
You are convinced of the proper noun MarYah, I am not. I am open to different possibilities for (MauR-Yau`), you seem not to be. We will just have to leave it at that.
