how to best contribute? (fixes included)

[GoogleCodeExporter]

When working with Morphisto, I encounter wrong analyses every now and then. 
What is your preferred way of sending fixes? 

I can open a new issue for each of them and describe it in detail, but 
considering that there are probably thousands of missing words and wrong 
analyses, progress would be very slow.

For now, I'm attaching 4 patches, one per problem. If you'd rather receive 
fixes in another way, please let me know.

expected result:

wegen<+PREP><Gen>
wegen<+POSTP><Dat>
wegen<+POSTP><Gen>

patch attached.

(you can argue about whether the postposition should be dative as well, but the 
preposition definitely should include the genitive analysis)

If this is not to complicated, I would prefer one bug report for each problem. 
As Christian said, patches are great. Many thanks.

0002: Accepted, we could probably fit the name of the inflection class into the 
scheme
0003: I think "Yen" has a genitive (see Attachment)
0004: Already treated in issue 35.

0001_2: Accepted

0003: "Yens" seems to be the minority (see attachment). Accepting both forms 
would be fine as well, but "Yen" as genitive/plural is definitely missing.

0003: So we can agree to put "Yen" into <NMasc_s_$x>?

Sorry, previous comment made no sense. We would need an singular-only 
inflection class which has optional genitive 's'.

Maybe there is still a plural of "Yen"

Actually, I agree that "Yen" should also be plural (I just said that it should 
have no plural '-s'). That's actually a more systematic problem: 
units (monetary units, but also things like "Prozent", "Gramm", "Bar", "Watt") 
should also be accepted as plural form, but only some (such as "Liter" and 
"Meter") are.

"Prozente" is there. According to Canoo, there is no unified inflection of 
measurements (Vgl. "Pond", "Mark", "Bar" and "Watt" as well as "Yen"). Shall we 
go with their judgements?

I think the article you linked to in comment 8 is right: the plural of "Euro" 
is sometimes "Euros", but when it's following a number, we normally write "Zwei 
Euro".

The same is true for "Prozent": "Prozente" is a possible plural form, but when 
it's following a number we say "Prozent", as in "zwei Prozent". I would accept 
both "Prozente" and "Prozent" as plural forms.
