The head of a bridi is the selbri, and the head of a tanru is the tertau.

What's the head of a phrase of the form LE+selbri?

I've been using selgadri. -- Adam Lopresto http://cec.wustl.edu/~adam/

If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the precipitate.

If the head is what gives a phrase its syntactic function, then it should be LE. This would be even more compelling if LE /KU/ was a valid sumti, since I think usually a head by itself is an instance of the phrase.
