I was trying to get CLAN to exclude interrupted, abandoned, and partially unintelligible utterances from its analyses of a batch of transcripts. I used CHSTRING to change +/ and +... into +/ [+bch] and +... [+bch], which worked swimmingly. Not so for unintelligible utterances, unfortunately, since the unintelligible bit can be anywhere in the utterance.
<br><br>So my question is whether there's a way to exclude those utterances, and not just the unintelligible parts of them. Thanks for your help.<br><br>Jamie<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 10/12/07,

<br>Jamie,<br> Do you mean position of the postcode in the command or in the<br>file.? In the file, it should be after the final delimiter. If you<br>run CHECK,<br>it will complain if you have done something wrong. In the command,
<br>you just want to add -s"[+ bch]" . The complete story on<br>ways to use postcodes is given in Tables 4-6 in section 9.5 pages<br>119-120 of the current version of the electronic manual.<br><br>Good luck,<br>
