ABOUT THE LECTURE
Text Annotation
The processing of field data is one of the most important linguistic tasks. It lays the fundamentals for documentary linguistics and for data-driven linguistic description and analysis. We will start with a survey of a range of interlinear glossed texts, focusing on format and function of the annotations. We will discuss linguistic standards and their use in an incremental and explorative annotation process. We will discuss the creation and maintenance of individual and collaborative research corpora using the online database TypeCraft.
Our lecture goes hand in hand with the practical training in the "Hands-on ELAN & TypeCraft" evening classes. Related to text annotation, we will give a brief introduction to the TypeCraft online Glosser and an overview of its main functionalities. Also in the evening classes, prrofessional video and audio anntoation with ELAN with be presented by Han Sloetjes.
The presentations will be followed by practical training in working with the tools. A step-by-step approach will guide the user through the basic functions of TypeCraft and ELAN with an emphasis on features that are relevant for Language Documentation projects and data-driven language description and analysis.
