Hi there, 

Is it possible to run MLU on specific utterances only? My aim to get see if one particular question type leads to longer child utterances on average. I am wondering if I can add a postcode to the utterances that I wish to include (child responses to adult questions) and then either 1) run MLU on utterances with that postcode only, or 2) create new files containing those utterances only and then run MLU on them. I am not having much success with this, so your help would be greatly appreciated. 

Best wishes
Amber

Amber,

Yes, you can do either 1) or 2). You can download our example files from URL https://talkbank.org/examples.zip. After you unzip "examples" directory you will find inside "sample.cha" file. For your solutions try the following commands on that "sample.cha" file:

1) mlu +t*chi +s"[+ Q]" sample.cha

2) kwal +t*chi +o@ID +o% +s"[+ Q]" sample.cha +d +f
    mlu sample.kwal.cex 


Leonid.
