77:1

وَٱلْمُرْسَلَٰتِ عُرْفًا

Alternative: recognize

Research rendering: in succession

Substitution fails here: recognize would impose the first unit's predicate on a segment whose frozen form and Quran-internal construction require in succession. This is the concrete contradiction supporting the lexeme partition.
