{ca'a pu} can be acceptable without any {ku}: {pugi ko'a gi ko'e}
is a <sumti>, and {ca'a} is a <tag>, which can come directly in
front of a sumti as a sumti tcita.

What I don't understand is how can we use {pu} as a tag in front
of the sumti {pugi ko'a gi ko'e}. It seems that the intended tag
{pu} will be absorbed by the gek during preparsing! Is this so, or
am I missing something?
