the most annoying part about conversation analysis transcription hw? trying to count out the pauses
#look she's not writing#i could get a timer to count the pauses for me but it feels like it would be admitting defeat#the experience of this assignment so far is just me pausing every two seconds to fix the amount of dialogue i already have transcribed#i know someone may come across this and go “nyla isn't your focus sociolinguistics & applied linguistics? ca is more aligned with sociology#and yes you would be right#b u t#i also think studying talk will help with me teaching my students be better at informal english#so i'm hoping this class is something becomes beneficial in the long term#i'm finding it interesting a class so far though and my prof is nice#also the dialogue we were tasked to transcribe is only about a minute long but damn is packed with tea??? sounds like an ex is involved#our prof knew how to maintain student attention with this one i'm crying
