Coding issues with isolation of verbal morphology

Thank you -it really did! I tried this code and it allowed me to see by 
speaker the produced stems with regular past tense morphology. I 
substituted -PAST for &PAST and this allowed the same for irregular past 
tense. Then I changed it to -t*, as I'm curious about a correlation between 
input on production over time and it allowed me to see the information I 
was after.
