That's an interesting and potentially insightful definition, but it turns a=
n awful lot of things into adpositions. Maybe it would be better to say tha=
t the morphophonological form of a phrase is derived not by simple concaten=
ation of the morphophonological forms of the phrase's constituents but rath=
er by 'circumcatenation', with the morphophonological form of the head wrap=
ped around the morphophonological form of its complement.
