Revised Words_Phrases
- Words or phrases that are revised or reformulated, whether by varying distinctly in pronunciation (as in repeated attempts to reach the correct phonology) or by revision to the structure or content of the phrase are marked as follows:
- For single revised words:
*PAR: she picked up the breakfast stræmbl@u [: scramble] [//] scramble to serve it out.
*PAR: he was born in nineteen forty [//] fifty five.
Example catalan: davant hi ha un [/] un [//] una [//] un barca que surt.example added 17.nov.2023
- For phrases, enclose the first production that is then revised in carrots < >
- Be sure to look at the ultimate revision as a reference for how much of the original was revised and thus how much to enclose in the carrots
*PAR: she <used to go> [//] used to swim down at the lake.
*PAR: <he found> [/] <he found> [//] <he uh found it> [//] <he found his ring> [//] uh when he went home he found the ring sitting there on the table.
- As you can see above, it can get tricky with multiple revisions/repetitions
- For single revised words:
Exceptions:
Cliticized Verbal Pairs
- In cases where there is a revision in Catalan that includes a preverbal clitic in the first verb and a postverbal clitic in the second verb, we must code the revision around the words without clitics. For example, let's take a look at the following utterance:
a. s'estan passant estan passant-ho
This is tricky because if we code it as a revision of the first two words, "estan" and "passant", as in (b), we will lose the clitic "s'", as in (c):
Coding:
b. <s'estan passant> [//] estan passant-ho
Output:
c. estan passant-ho
Likewise, if we do the same with the last two words, we lose "-ho":
Coding:
d. s'estan passant <estan passant-ho> [//]
Output:
e. s'estan passant
For this reason, we need to code it in a slightly unusual way where we "cut" out the words that will not make us lose access to the clitics. This means that we code for a revision in a way that is "across" the original and repeated phrases:
Coding:
f. s'estan <passant estan> [//] passant-ho
Output:
g. s'estan passant-ho
