I didn't ask: Are those cases the same; for I know that they're not. I asked if the word could act this way, even though it was not a regular title. Sorry, if that wasn't clear. | |

And although it's a bit less common, I wouldn't argue with the "reduced syntax" of Karen went shopping with friend Juliette. | |
