Generating novel views from limited observations requires preserving both the appearance and spatial structure of a scene. Although recent approaches exploit fine-grained geometric cues, they do not explicitly model high-level semantic and spatial properties such as object identity, attributes, and inter-object relationships. In this work, we investigate whether 3D language understanding can provide complementary supervision for novel-view generation. We introduce Ask4NV, built on a pretrained unified multimodal model with a Mixture-of-Transformers (MoT) architecture. Our model incorporates camera geometry into both VAE and ViT representations and leverages understanding features during generation through joint self-attention with a modality-aware attention masking strategy. Experiments demonstrate strong image quality and geometric consistency in novel-view generation, alongside competitive 3D language understanding. Further analysis shows that joint training improves cross-view correspondence in VAE representations and similarity in a 3D-aware feature space.
