Bert, The word SDRs in CEPT that Fluent is using have no concept of part of speech, so I doubt you would get the right types of words in the right places. I have done some experiments with parts of speech tagging using the POS tags in NLTK as categories for NuPIC [1], and it does pretty well at guessing what POS is coming next in a sentence, but this is a very hard problem that can't be done by most humans well either, because of the possibility of so many branches in human speech.
