I think that REST is the language of your API. Just like in a regular PL you normally have just a handful of verbs, as I said in my first answer, so to in REST you only need a few verbs.
Of course, you then build up functionality over those base verbs, just like in a program. But your programming language doesn't have a verb for each function you might want to write. It just has the base 'call' verb.
