Parallel Annotation of Speech and Text
The following is a test picture (of a picture produced in Praat) The test picture will be replaced by a Praat picture which reflects Asger's text grids. Every Praat picture will correspond to a TC sentence which we can load very easily to this wiki by exporting it from the TC database. The size of the the Praat picture can be adjusted.
Here we can add some text that discusses our annotations, and makes the reader aware of some of the interesting aspects of our annoations.
Not all of your text grids and annotation tables need to be represented equally large. The reader of the this page may always click on one
of the Praat representations to view a larger version of the Praat picture, while TC annotations can be searched in the TC database in order to be inspected more carefully.

About the TextGrid files:
The TextGrid files are opened together with the matching sound file for viewing in the Praat application. The TextGrid files consist of three tiers, 'Word' (rendered in Bokmål orthography) 'Phoneme' (shows underlying segments) and 'Note' (shows surface realisation with IPA symbols, and other notes).
Here is a list of glosses used in the 'Note' tier:
Phonology/Phonetics: BrV = Segent realised with breathy voice CrV = Segent realised with creaky voice DV = Underlying voiced segment realised devoiced EPN = Epenthesis RD = Reduction of segment (e.g. corner vowel realised as schwa or plosive as fricative). V = Underlying non-voiced segment realised voiced
Morphophonology/Syntax CL = Clitic
Other ERR = The speaker errs and corrects himself HES = (Audible) hesitation from speaker
