Hmmm, I would hope so. Otherwise it would be rather frivolous. Confusingly worded nonetheless, my suggestion would be to make it more obvious that was the case as the description does not list the proper naginata form as a polearm.

Another concern is that if it does in fact turn into a semi-greatsword at the same time is the fact that there would simply be a lack of substance behind the blade. Which in turn would dampen its effectiveness. A Naginata's blade is 30-60cm whereas a greatsword is 90-120cm traditionally speaking. Qrow is able to achieve the desired effect by having a large scythe. I'm assuming its a greatsword due to the fact that Solaris settled on a single edged greadsword in his backstory. It would be wise to state details such as that and what sort of shotgun is within it. Specifics make things easier to understand in the long run.

On a couple notes unrelated to the weapon: Why have him speak a language that frankly doesn't exist to our knowledge outside of naming conventions? Lastly for now at least, it would be wise to make there be an actual tie to his personality from his semblance. An allusion is not who you are, its what you reference.
