<div dir="ltr">I apologize if the answer to this is somewhere already, but I couldn't find anything relevant when I searched old messages.

I've been using various data files in classes for several years, and a
question came up about one of them today, that seem curious. It's about
the Nanette file (the mother transcript specifically, but it could be
true of other parts of Nanette, or other children
in the Gleason files). The version of the file I have (downloaded
several years ago) contains a lot of overregularized past tense verbs
produced by the Mother. It's a version of the file with a %mmor tier but
no %gra tier, which should give people an idea
of how old it is. One of my students was trying to figure out why this
might be the case, and went and looked at the file on the website (In
this particular class I give them excerpts in an excel file) and found
that the overregularizations weren't in the
file. I double checked that it's not just an issue with the excel file I
created, and it's not, they overregularizations are actually in the
.cha file I have.<br>
<br>
My question is whether anyone knows when and how these changes were made
to the files, and if there have been similar changes made to other
files. Were the overregularizations in the original just transcription
errors (although odd ones, since breaked and broke
are very confusable)? If not, then the replacement correct forms are
errors right?<br>
<br>
Thanks for any and all assistance with this.<br>
