Hello I have a question regarding phrase extraction:

In the following situation:

0 0 0 a
0 X 0 b
0 0 0 c
z x y

where 0 means no alignment point and X mean an aligned point. a b c are one
language words and x y z are the other language words. i get the following
sentences for a sentence length 2:
b -x
a b - x
b c - c
b - z x
b - x y
a b - z x
a b - x y
b c - z x
b c - x y

My question is if i shouldn't also have:
a - z
c - y
There is no align point, but this phrases are also not violating any
alignment.
The way i though phrase extraction worked was if there was no aligned points
all possible subsets of the matrix will be extracted as phrases. Since we
have alignment points all subsets that violate the alignment points were not
extracted.

Thanks  a lot for your help,

Joao
