the second example is indented in linguex

Question

I'm new to LaTeX so excuse my naive question. I use \usepackage{linguex} to generate linguistic examples but when I try to write two or more examples, the second one is indented. How can I make all the examples in the document have the same indentation?

The code:

\exg. Koitu-wa kamo-des-u\\
this-Top duck-Polite-Pres\\
``This is a duck.''\\
\ex. \ag. Koitu-ra-wa kamo-des-u\\
this-PL-Top duck-Polite-Pres\\
``These are ducks.''\\
\bg. Demo, aitu-ra-wa gan-des-u\\
however, that-PL-Top goose-Polite-Pres\\
``However, those are geese.''

The output:

Answer 1

The linguex syntax requires a blank line between each \ex. or \exg. set of examples. The glossing macros use \\ at the end of each gloss line, but not after the free translation line. This is the main problem with the code that you posted. Here's a fixed up version that does what you want.

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{linguex}
\begin{document}
\exg. Koitu-wa kamo-des-u\\
this-Top duck-Polite-Pres\\
``This is a duck.''

\ex. \ag. Koitu-ra-wa kamo-des-u\\
this-PL-Top duck-Polite-Pres\\
``These are ducks.''
\bg. Demo, aitu-ra-wa gan-des-u\\
however, that-PL-Top goose-Polite-Pres\\
``However, those are geese.''

\end{document}
