Hello,
We are working on bilingual transcriptions and had a question about code-switched utterances. Apologies if I've missed this in the manual.
One of our goals is to obtain an mlu for Spanish only utterances, excluding mixed utterances. For example:
*MOT: ahorita tienes que comer.
*MOT: no es time@s to@s sleep@s.
We would like to obtain an mlu (on the %mor line) excluding the utterance with code-switching. We've tried the following command, but this includes both utterances excluding the English words, where we'd like the output to consider the Spanish-only line.
mlu
-s"[- eng]" -s"L2|*"
It seems like our options are:
1) go back to our transcripts and add a postcode for any code-switched utterances to use the +s switch with postcodes
2) use kwal to exclude utterances with the @s symbol similar to what is seen here
I wanted to know if there was a way to use the switches to exclude utterances with the @s symbol, or automate a way to include a postcode in our transcripts for every utterance with the @s symbol?
Thank you in advance,
Janet
