Hi James,

The first probability is P(source|target) rather than P(target|source), so my 
guess is "! ) ,"  occurs only
once in the second column, and maps to "! )" with probability 1. 

The third column holds p(target|source),  so that's  0.125 + 0.5  = 0.625,
which means there are probably more translation options for "! )" that
cover the remaining 0.375, adding up to one.

Regards,
