That really has nothing at all to do with the point I was making,
which is that it shouldn't be processing stuff inside the zoi quote
at all.  "gyrate" or "gyrations" or whatever shouldn't be able to be
matched as the delimiter because "gy" isn't *seperated out as a
word* there.  Since we're talking about text and not speaking, this
means: it has no space or . after it.
