I found the following error.
I wanted to determine the approximate time taken for each production steps.
The parser has tagged the last word ‘steps’ as only VBZ and not as NNS. Whereas even if I replaced it with ‘trees’, it identified it as VBZ.
It worked correctly if the last word was ‘cars’.
If anyone knows the fallacy, let me know.
You can use Text Analysis - LanguageTool - the disambiguator log will show what’s going on and point to the disambiguation rule that might need to be improved.
Disambiguator log:

The last disambiguator rule requires to be improved.
Partly fixed ([en] Improve disambiguation AN_JJ_VB_NN · languagetool-org/languagetool@89c6fcb · GitHub).
Although the disambiguation is better, the grammar rules do not give a message for the incorrect inflection ‘steps’ in “…the approximate time taken for each production steps.”
The rule does not disambiguate “Each man walks quickly.” I guess that is related to the exception in the second token. But, I don’t understand the exception and thus have not changed it.
