treament of circumfixes

[Bruno Estigarribia]

Hello all!

I am analyzing a corpus of code-switching between Spanish and Guaraní.
While we prepare a better version using a %mor tier (mostly done by hand, 
obviously, since I don't think we have lib files for Guaraní :-) ), I have 
been doing some quick "old-style" morphemization on the main tier (which I 
believe will still work with MLU as long as I include the -t%mor switch, 
right?).
Then a question came up: how does mlu treat circumfixes? Example, the 
Guaraní negation nd-...-i as in:
nd-a-guata-i
NEG#1s#walk-NEG
"I don't walk"
I obviously don't want to count nd# and -i separately...
I couldn't find the answer on either the CHAT or the CLAN manuals, or on 
this list. Sorry if I've missed something!
Thanks!
Bruno
