parsing phrases



1) Is there a marker that separates a subject phrase from a verb 
phrase without applying a tense?

2) Earlier I was musing that a phrase used as a title would be known 
as such by the lack of an article. But that means that if I like 
General Jones and I write "Go pipyar jeneral tay Jonz", then I can 
only identify the boundary between the verb and the object if I know 
that "pipyar" can only be a verb and "jeneral" can only be a noun. So 
maybe we do need an article that says "title"?
