Believe it or not, I have written it without the slightless hesitation, which you would also be able to do had you heard it pronounced it just once (as I did).
As soon as we hear it, we immediately map the appropriate intonation of the expression with a phrase structure. It is only AFTER we have easily done that apparently difficult feat that we are able to go on along the other steps that I pointed to yesterday until we complete the whole interpretation process.
--- I would humbly suggest that there is precious little physical evidence that we do do any kind of this interpretive labour. Or: if anyone can point to what these "phrase structures" are on the physical level, I would be happy to see it. M.J.MurphyReceived on Sun Feb 13 12:53:40 2011
