<DIV><FONT color=#000000 face=Arial>We would like the following people for
answering our query on the Santa Barbara Corpus of Spoken American English:

<DIV><FONT color=#000000 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 face=Arial>With some of the list members' help we
managed to install the corpus and we are now able to search the transcript files
using WordSmith Tools. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 face=Arial>It seems as if the speech files and the
transcript files are not in any way aligned. Nevertheless it is possible to
identify the concordance lines by their corresponding time count which you can
find in the trn. files in front of each utterance. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 face=Arial>Thank you very much for your
help!</FONT></DIV>
