This week, we’re writing about one of the small snags we’ve had in transcribing: the several variant forms of the “S” graph. Check it out here: wp.unil.ch/lalp/?p=390 #HistoricalSociolinguistics #CorpusLinguistics @SNSF_ch @LettresUNIL

The @LalpProject (@snf_ch @LettresUNIL @dhCenter_)is taking a #tweetbreak until September. In the meantime, we continue with the creation of our pauper petition corpus. We will share more transcription challenge stories and news after the break. Have a good summer and stay safe!

This week’s #OnThisDay features two very different letters. While both ask for relief, one spans over two pages, whereas the other is only four lines long. Check the following link for more information: wp.unil.ch/lalp/?p=366 @SNSF_ch @lettresunil @dhCenter_ #DigitalHumanities

This week’s #LALPOfTheWeek is a particularly challenging letter in terms of character transcription, with screenshots! Check it out here: wp.unil.ch/lalp/?p=363 @SNSF_ch @lettresunil @dhCenter_ #HistoricalSociolinguistics #DigitalHumanities #Manuscripts #PauperPetitions

The letters in our corpus are mainly directed at the overseers of the applicant’s home parishes, however, #OnThisDay in 1827, a letter was written to a “Dear frend” as the parish has not taken any actions. Find out more on our project website: wp.unil.ch/lalp/?p=360
