Participant ID

[Elnaz Kia]

Hello again,

I had a question about the participant ID in CHAT. In our corpus, all the
files are single-speaker and the participant ID includes 5 characters, one
letter representing the language, and 4 digits representing a unique
student id).

@Begin
@Languages: zho
@Participants: c0002 IDc0002 Student
@ID: zho|corpus|c0002|0;00.00||||Student|||
@Media: c0002cadr01_1, audio
@Transcriber: Xiqiang Wang
@Comment: hum, ahn, ah, eh signal hesitation
@Situation: unspecified
*c0002: eh (..) .
*c0002: wo3 (..) .
*c0002: eh .
@End

According to the CHAT Manual (2021, p. 21), "After the asterisk on the main
line comes a three-letter code in upper case letters for the participant
who was the speaker of the utterance being coded."

*My questions are: *
1. How does the fact that our participant IDs are 5 characters and include
digits affect CLAN functions?
2. If having more than 3 characters is okay, does it matter whether the
letters are capital or small (c0002 vs. C0002)? Which one is preferred?

I would appreciate any help!

Thanks,
Elnaz
