We are moving along well. Will you be asking your questions one at a time?
Before I try to answer your question, which is not easy, would you try to answer
mine: How else could the default order of the NP: DENDRON KALON be made specific
by use of the article, when you cannot say TO DENDRON KALON and still keep it as
one NP? Nor can you say TO KALON DENDRON, because then it would no longer be
unmarked in relation to emphasis.
