hey,

all you discourse types. this poor generativist could use your help in
two areas with respect to the Tiberian accents.

(1) the verse divisions seem to follow the contour of discourse. a
theory of discourse that could help in predicting the location of sof
passuq would be useful. ;-)

(2) the contour of conjoined structures is in part determined ad
sensum. any discourse-based principles that would help in parsing
conjoined structures would be useful. ;-)
