Hi christine

If the factors overlap, in this case the target language lemma overlap, then
their values have to match. Therefore, both lemma's are used.

I personally would only use 1 translation step
        lemma+pos+morph -> lemma+pos

Decomposing the factors is not known to work except in special circumstnaces

ofFactors

Dear moses-support,

when using translation-steps (e.g.):
lemma -> lemma(1)
pos -> lemma(2)
morph -> pos

and generation-steps:
lemma, pos -> surface

which lemmas are combined with the pos to generate the surface form? 
lemma(1) AND lemma(2) or just one of them? If it's just one, what happens to
the other?

Best regards,
Christine de Bond
