Linguistic examples are typically not just translated but also glossed – a bit-by-bit translation as it were. But what makes a good gloss? In this video, Allen Asiimwe and Jenneke van der Wal show you where to use hyphens or full stops, how to choose the right gloss, and answer some key questions about interlinear glossing.
This video has been made possible through funding by a Una Europa Africa Partnership Seed Fund for the ELSEA project - a collaboration between Allen Asiimwe, Lotta Aunio, Saudah Namyalo, Bert Remijsen, and Jenneke van der Wal - and support from Leiden University, and was created by Marit Geluk.
