IT - Interlinear Text Processing System
IT is a program developed by the Summer Institute of
Linguistics to give linguists, literary scholars,
anthropologists, translators, and others a tool for developing a
corpus of annotated interlinear text. For instance, in New
Testament research it offers the possibility of transforming the
Greek text into an interlinear text with grammatical tags, the
lexical form of the word, and a word by word English translation
all aligned for interlinear analysis, followed by various
translations of the text into English or other languages.
Includes a 363 page book which describes how to use IT for
such freeform (clause or sentence) annotations as translations,
explanatory comments, topic indexing, user notes, source texts.
Features: keeps word and morpheme annotations aligned vertically
with the base form, saves word and morpheme annotations in
on-line lexical database, retrieves previous annotations to
ensure consistency, inserts annotations automatically when
unambiguous, asks for user input when annotation is unknown or
has multiple options, adds new annotations automatically to
lexical database, allows user to specify organization and type of
annotations, up to 22 kinds of annotation per analyzed text.
