I missed a couple years worth of HolQeD's, so maybe I am just lacking some
new information, but I have been seeing *many* instances of copular
constructions (e.g. "X 'oH/ghaH/bIH/chaH [Y'e']", where X and Y are noun
phrases; cf. TKD 6.3) on the listserv without the -'e' on the subject. What
exactly happened while I was gone? Is the -'e' no longer necessary there?
