I did an analysis of the WLC text, and came up with the following stats:

*******************************************


Now for all of the items all of them are <MIN> except for the 
possibility of the last two, the <MA>.
So why would all the affixed <M> be <MIN> except for those two?

Pere Porta asked if there are any occurrences of two or more 
propositions being grouped together.
The analysis shows the following:

************************************************
Occurrences of two or more propositions being grouped together:

Exo 023:028,12 <MI/L.:/PFNE75Y/KF00> --- 2
************************************************


To these results I ask the inverse question: are the any occurrences of 
a pronoun being in between two prepositions, or between a preposition 
and another word form (such as a noun, verb, adjective, etc)?
The analysis shows the following:
********************************************************************************
Occurrences of a pronoun being in between two prepositions, or between a 
preposition and another word form:
********************************************************************************
--- Total: 0 (2 if the two in question are pronouns)
********************************************************************************

In fact, the only time we have a pronoun as an affix is in these two 
cases (assuming it is of course).

So I ask my question again, why do some people have these two as an 
affixed pronoun?
