LexBuild - Check Irreg Base Forms
This feature identifies possible errors on irreg base forms when there are spelling variants. Lexical syntax is changed in 2004 to add base form as the first field of the irreg inflectional variants line. Sometimes, the base form is not corresponding to the followed inflectional variants. This feature identifies records with this problem by checking base form and all spelling variants are listed in the irreg line.
