unit they belong to, but they are not correctly related to their real time duration because

ELAN just divides the duration of the parent tx unit into equal cells for each word

contained in this unit. If you are concerned about the real time duration of each word, you

will have to move the boundaries of each word to align them according to their proper

duration, by playing the sound of the current word (click on the bar under it).

5. ELAN-CorpA: Elan for CorpAfroAs

You are now in Elan for CorpAfroAs .

Changing the ELAN preferences

While typing your annotations, if you want to save a cell in ELAN, the default method is

CTRL+ENTER (or CMD+ENTER in Mac). But there is a faster way: in the Edit/preferences

menu, there is an item writing preferences, which contains editing in which you can choose

enter key commits changes in the inline edit box. Then, by pressing only the ENTER key, you

save your changes.

When a virtual keyboard is used, system shortcuts may conflict with some ELAN shortcuts.

The solution is to change the ELAN shortcuts in the menu: Edit, Preferences, Edit shortcuts.

Interlinearizing process into ELAN

Until now, ELAN was not able to generate the segmentation and glossing lines mb, ge and

rx on its own. What was possible was:

- doing the job manually by splitting the segments and adding the gloss in the cells,

- exporting the data prepared in ELAN to Toolbox, then parsing and annotating using the

functionalities of Toolbox, then re-importing the Toolbox file into ELAN.

The idea was to simplify this process by giving the user access to some Toolbox-like

functionalities directly in ELAN, i.e to allow the segmentation of words by means of a

lexicon containing affixes, and to propose glossing by looking up into the same lexicon!.

To do this, an « Interlinearize » tab has been added!.

Once a file is opened, Click on the « Interlinearize » tab.

Creating, Opening, Importing a lexicon

The interlinearizing process relies on the

existence of a lexicon which can be!!

• a brand new ELAN lexicon

• an existing ELAN lexicon

• a lexicon imported from Toolbox

into ELAN
