Hi Tania,<br><br>I have some course materials from the InField workshop on ELAN in 2008 that contain step-by-step instructions for doing what you'd like to do. You can download them here:<br><a href="http://www.linguistics.ucsb.edu/faculty/infield/courses/elan.html">http://www.linguistics.ucsb.edu/faculty/infield/courses/elan.html</a><br>
<br>In the coursepack file, you can look at the section on "Creating a two-language basic annotation" for your interview, and maybe the section on full IGT is what you want for your "traditional linguistic elicitation." There's also some information on wrapping your head around tiers and linguistic types.<br>
<br>Good luck!<br>HTH,<br>Andrea<br clear="all">-----------------------------<br>Andrea L. Berez<br>PhD candidate, Dept. of Linguistics<br>University of California, Santa Barbara<br><a href="http://www.uweb.ucsb.edu/~aberez/">http://www.uweb.ucsb.edu/~aberez/</a><br>

Hi<div><br></div><div>I've been trying to do some transcriptions in Elan and can't seem to get past the designing the template to use. So I was wondering if there's anyone that would share one of their Elan files that I could use as a template or make one simple one for me so that I can somehow get started... I'm looking to transcribe a simple one language interview with a translation in english and also have another two language "traditional" linguistic elicitation with english translation. I just cannot wrap my head around the tiers etc... And if anyone can shed light on how to label different speakers that would be great too...<br clear="all">
