CHIP morphological additions

Hi Emily,

I don't get the same results that you do, so my first question to you is what version of CLAN are you using? Also, unfortunately, the results that I get are incorrect. The comma (,) cm|cm character is causing problems. This will take a little while to fix and figure out. Please email to me directly the answer about the version of CLAN that you are using. I will try to fix the problem with comma (,) cm|cm character and then I will try to figure out why results for you are inconsistent.

I get consistent results using the latest version of CLAN and command "chip +bMOT +cCHI -ns -nc +g -hexclude.cut +q3 +d chip.cha". But, results are erroneous (in red color), because of the cm|cm character error. The +f, +t%mor, +t%cod and +t@ options are not necessary for testing CHIP command. Here is what I get for the first two example in your email:

*CHI:     bubble .
%mor:	n|bubble .
*MOT:   yeah , bubbles .
%mor:	co|yeah cm|cm v|bubble-3S .
%adu:	$EXA:bubble $FRO $ADD:cm $EXPAN $MADD:-3S $DIST = 1 $REP = 0.50

*CHI:     toy .
%mor:	n|toy .
*MOT:   toys , yeah .
%mor:	n|toy-PL cm|cm co|yeah .
%adu:	$FRO $EXA:toy $ADD:cm $EXPAN $MADD:-PL $DIST = 1 $REP = 0.50

Note that I entered a cut file that excludes conversational devices, which is why CHIP is ignoring "yeah" in the examples.
