There was lengthy discussion on this subject in the past.  It should
be impossible.  I forgot the detail but I supposed J like human
language is context dependent and use grammars like

verb noun -> noun
noun verb noun -> noun
verb verb -> verb
verb adverb -> verb
noun adverb -> verb
verb ` verb -> gerund

etc.
