The original thinking was to use CONCURRENT, and CREATE CONCURRENT INDEX

CONCURRENTLY INDEX sounds good.  To read in English, it would be read as
CREATE CONCURRENTLY, INDEX ii.

That doesn't sound like English at all to me.

Fwiw, I think the best option was what Tom did. The gotcha I tripped on seems
pretty minor to me.


It's a form of construction my father (who was a noted orator) loved to use, maybe a little too much. It is arguably slightly archaic, but nevertheless quite grammatical ;-) I agree that these days it is more idiomatic to defer the adverb until after the object of the verb in most cases.
