You need to add "-t%mor" option to "mlu" command line for that. However, the results of the analyses will not be very accurate. MLU searches for "-#~" symbols to count morphemes. Those symbols are used to separate morphemes in data files on "%mor" tier. Most of the data does not include any of those symbols on speaker tiers. In those cases MLU's morphemes count will represent words count instead.<br><div>

The words listed in the "exclude.cut" file have to match the format on corresponding tier. For example, when searching for word "what" on speaker tier you would specify -s"what", but when searching for the same word on "%mor" tier you would specify -s"pro:wh|what" or</div>
<div>-s"*|what". if you need more help, then please email your exclude.cut file to me directly, not chibolts, and I'll try to help you. </div><div><div>

<br>1. I am running MLU analyses and I am trying to exclude words in the morpheme count that are set up in a separate .cut file. I am using the -s switch such as: <a href="mailto:-s@exclude.cut" target="_blank">-s@exclude.cut</a> in the command, but it does not seem to be working (when I use the same switch with the FREQ program, it does work). Is there a certain way the file has to be set up to exclude words for MLU? The "exclude.cut" file itself is located in the same working/library directory as the files I'm trying to analyze.<br>
<br>2. Also, is there a difference between tagging words such as jack+in+the+box, or jack_in_the_box for MLU? A short test sentence I ran did not arrive with a different MLU count.<br><br>Thank you!<br>Janet Bang<br><div>
