<div>Dear Capucine,</div>
<div> You need to use the plus sign for compounds. So, the entry in n+n.cut (or else your own separate add-in .cut file) should be:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>
<div>tarte+tatin {[scat n][gen fem][comp n+n]} =apple_tart=</div>
<div>tartes+tatin {[scat n][gen fem][num pl][comp n+n]} =apple_tarts=</div>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>For French compounds in which the plural is marked at the end (I.e. te+deums) there is no need for an extra entry for the plural. However, for those in which the plural is internal or double (petits-infants) there has to be an additional entry in the
n+n.cut file.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Also, in the transcript, you should use the form tartes+tatin, rather than tartes_tatin.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Recently, I made some changes to the FRA lexicon to conform more closely to standard orthography, but I imagine you would still want to write tartes+tatin, rather than tartestatin. In the Germanic languages compounds get written as one word, but in French,
I think one expects some sort of separation, usually by a hyphen, but we are using the plus instead.</div>

<div dir="ltr">Hello,<br>
<br>
We are currently transcribing corpus in French and we have difficulties with the plural of compounds form.<br>
<br>
We have to add to lexicon file some compounds and Mor doesn't recognize that the compound is at the plural form.<br>
<br>
We had try to enter these two forms : <style type="text/css">p { margin-bottom: 0.25cm; line-height: 120%; }</style>
<blockquote><font color="#000000">tartes_tatin {[scat n][gen fem][comp n+n]}<br>
</font></blockquote>
<blockquote><font color="#000000">tartes_tatin {[scat n][gen fem][tn pl][comp n+n]}.</font></blockquote>
<div>But in both cases, the %mor line doesn't recognize the plural.<br>
<br>
Do you know how we can do to indicate to mor that this compund is at the plural form ?<br>
<br>
(sorry for this approximate English...)<br>
<br>
Tank you !<br>
