The difference is just that "." is not recognized as a word (and a
space " " would do just as well, BTW). What I'm saying is that for
ZOhOI to work, we would be required to treat the pause/space as a new
kind of (pseudo-)word, so that the syntax stage, not just the
morphology stage as now, needs to be made aware of pause/spaces.
