The fact that sentences of the form fuck 2 plus NP are not known
to be valid_ly analyzable as NP & VP in deep structure, the fact that they
are not embeddable in any sentences?, and the fact that they allow none
of the adjuncts which all other sentences allow, makes highly plausible
the hypothesis that they should not even be analyzed as sentences• that
the category 'utterance' be divided into two subcategories, 'sentence'
and 'epithet 1 (the latter class including utterances such as (2), (46),
and (64)), that only 'sentence' and not 1 epithet 1 be embeddable within
an utterance, that 1 epithet 1 involve a lexical category of 1 quasi-verbs 1
(this category consists of fuck 2 , shit on, etc.), that there be a
phrase-structure rLlie
Epithet -:> Quasi -verb NP
and that 'Quasi-verb' appear in no other phrase-structure rule,
