When glossing morphemes, please use the following order:
 +
*verb.(mode).person
  
−
When separating verbal inflection into smaller morphemes, please gloss in linear order. But if not, gloss the verb using the following order:
+
Please refer to the following default forms:
−
* verb order (i.e.VTA);
+
*person: animate [AN] is assumed, only gloss inanimate [IN]
−
* conjugation (i.e. IND.PRES = indicative present);
+
*number: singular [SG] is the assumed, only gloss dual [DU] or plural [PL]
−
* person & number (i.e. 3PL>4PL = 3rd person plural (subject) > 4th person plural (object))
+
*tense: present is assumed, only gloss past [PST], future [FUT], or pluperfect [PLP]
 +
*mode: indicative [IND] is assumed, only gloss imperative [IMP], subjunctive [SBJV] ('if...' or 'when...'), conditional [COND], subordinative [SUBV], infinitive [INF], or impersonal [IMPS]
 +
*order: no need to gloss this as the person agreement will provide this information (i.e. VII has one inanimate argument (i.e. 0 'it...'), VAI has one animate argument (i.e. 3 's/he...'), VTI has one animate subject and an inanimate object (i.e. 2>0 'you... it') and VTA has two animate arguments (i.e. 2>3 'you... her/him'))
  
 
NOTE: person/number agreement affixes that express both subject & object agreement, '>' should be used with the subject first and the object is second (i.e. subject>object)

There are some key differences between the Mi'gmaq Research Partnership's LingSync glossing conventions and the ones listed below. Please check out the LingSync Glosses for more details!

Format

Separate:

  • segmentable morphemes within a word with '-'
  • clitics with '='
  • multiple meta-language elements (meanings and/or abbreviations) in a single form with '.'


Gloss lexical items in 'normal font', and all else in 'CAPITALS' 

  1. ms't  e'pij-ig  genn-atijig   ji'nm-ug  
all   woman-PL  hold-3PL>4PL  man-PL    
    'all the women are holding the men'

When glossing morphemes, please use the following order:

  • verb.(mode).person

Please refer to the following default forms:

  • person: animate [AN] is assumed, only gloss inanimate [IN]
  • number: singular [SG] is the assumed, only gloss dual [DU] or plural [PL]
  • tense: present is assumed, only gloss past [PST], future [FUT], or pluperfect [PLP]
  • mode: indicative [IND] is assumed, only gloss imperative [IMP], subjunctive [SBJV] ('if...' or 'when...'), conditional [COND], subordinative [SUBV], infinitive [INF], or impersonal [IMPS]
  • order: no need to gloss this as the person agreement will provide this information (i.e. VII has one inanimate argument (i.e. 0 'it...'), VAI has one animate argument (i.e. 3 's/he...'), VTI has one animate subject and an inanimate object (i.e. 2>0 'you... it') and VTA has two animate arguments (i.e. 2>3 'you... her/him'))

NOTE: person/number agreement affixes that express both subject & object agreement, '>' should be used with the subject first and the object is second (i.e. subject>object)
