Sign Level Information

This module provides a place to tag the particular corpus entry with relevant information, including information about the signer, the coder, the video, and the sign. This information may be used in searches to identify and group together signs based on shared sign level information.

NB: There is slightly more detailed information about how glosses, lemmas, and ID-glosses relate to each other in About the Sample Corpus.

  • Entry ID

The entry ID will be generated automatically by SLP-AA. See Setting Preferences for how to set preferences.

  • Gloss

Write the gloss for the sign. Note: multiple glosses per sign are allowed. Double click in the location indicated to add an additional gloss. The process is iterative; once one gloss is entered, a new double-click location is added. Do not separate multiple glosses with commas, etc.

  • Lemma

Write the lemma for the sign.

  • ID-Gloss

Write the ID-gloss for the sign.

  • Source

Select source from dropdown menu after they have been specified in source_info_entry (to link to metadata documentation when created)

  • Signer

Select source from dropdown menu after they have been specified in signer_info_entry (to link to metadata documentation when created)

  • Frequency

Include how often the sign occurs in the corpus.

  • Coder

Select source from dropdown menu after they have been specified in coder_info_entry (to link to metadata documentation when created)

  • Last Updated

This will be filled in automatically when you change any element of the sign.

  • Notes

These notes will be attached to the particular sign in the corpus.

  • Fingerspelled

Check the box if this is a fingerspelled sign.

  • Compound

Check the box if this is a compound sign.

  • Hand Dominance

Choose from one of the options L or R for the signer. Global settings for hand dominance can be specified by the user in Setting Preferences.
