1) - Is there a way to add more detail to the %mor tier and run analyses on these things that are not mentioned in the CHAT manual? I am wanting to code argument structure of verbs. I tried adding an extra classification on my %mor tier like v|give-3S-PAST-ditransitive, but it gives me an error that it does not recognize that code. I am not sure how to edit the %mor file to adjust this, if it is even doable.
2) - If I code missing items, like 0det for missing determiner, how can I run commands just involving these absent items?
3) - Can I run commands on the error tier? I have coded semantic errors and would like to run an analysis on these if possible.
4) - I also would like to use post codes (e.g., [+gram] is mentioned in the CHAT manual) at the end of lines, but the manual doesn’t say on which tier this code needs to be. I have been putting it on the annotation tier, which does not cause any errors, but I am unable to run commands based on the post-code.
Thank you!
Dear Katerina,
I couldn’t replicate any problem directly. Probably I don’t understand what you are doing. Which program is giving you the error message? To understand this, I would need to see your command line and a one-line file in which you enter the code and get an error message.
However, the right way to do this would be to add verb class codes to all the verbs in the v.cut file in the English MOR grammar. That is a big job, but it would be the right way to tackle the issue.
Regarding searches for 0det and such, you would use +s”0*” in FREQ, KWAL, etc.
Yes, you can run commands on the %err tier. You use +t%err. However, we encourage people to do error coding on the main line. The manual has a section on this.
Postcodes go on the main line.

Dear Katerina,
Yes typos can cause problems. If you have a small corpus, hand entry of these codes will be much easier. At some point, we intend to enter in the v.cut lexicon the various codes derived from VerbNet.
Regarding your problem with error codes on the main line, I would again suspect a typo. For example, the line you sent me was
PAR*: The fish [* s:r] caught the man [* s:r].
But this has to be
*PAR: The fish [* s:r] caught the man [* s:r].
In regards to searching for postcodes, there is a distinction between finding the postcode and finding the material marked with the postcode. Please just read section 10.7 of the manual.

Dear Katie,
You need a space after the plus in [+ gram]
