another element.

The most widely used type of enclosure is use of an attribute between the

article (determiner) and the head-noun (a pretty face, your perfect man, one good

position. The then president — here the adverb then, being enclosed between

the article and the noun it belongs to, is in this way shown to be an

attribute to the noun. In the phrase a go-to-devil expression the phrase go-

to-devil is enclosed between the article and the noun to which the article

belongs, and this characterises the syntactic connections of the phrase.
