There are two possible fixes. The first is to invent a new phantom-word mechanism, that would result in a parse such as this: ``` +------------Xc------------+ +------->WV------------>+----MVs----+----CV-->+ | +->Wd--+-Sp*i+-----I----+ +-Xd+-Cs+--Ss-+--MVa-+ |...

The conventional way of representing such a substitution is to place square brackets around the added words: * "The coffee tastes [the same] as it did last week" This is...
