We'd like to remind readers that the responses to queries are usually
best posted to the individual asking the question. That individual is
then strongly encouraged to post a summary to the list. This policy was
instituted to help control the huge volume of mail on LINGUIST; so we
would appreciate your cooperating with it whenever it seems appropriate.

In addition to posting a summary, we'd like to remind people that it
is usually a good idea to personally thank those individuals who have
taken the trouble to respond to the query.

I am looking for information on the conventions of language transcription. 
Obviously, we linguists have a myriad of ways for representing recorded 
interactions.

I am interested in the ways this might influence our understanding of human 
language. 

In geography some maps might lead people to think about the world in certain 
ways: http://go.hrw.com/atlas/norm_map/world.gif

However, there are many different orientations:

What have people written about for how this process occurs in language 
transcription?
