Syntactic function nab.post-V

abstract noun modified by a preceding verbal expression.

It is an interesting question why one should not be able to take these expressions to be nab.post-Nab. In posing this structure, is one just imposing English structural sensibilities on the Chinese? What is going on in the analysis of constructions of this sort?
