First of all, I
transcribed my data by recording the conversations on my phone, listening to it
again, writing it out on paper and then typing it up on Word. Each piece of
data is about three minutes long and took about two hours to fully transcribe
and type up. The transcript of children speaking, I've recorded from YouTube
because now that all the children are in school I did not have time to sit down
with my nieces because their parents were always too busy. The teenager’s
conversation I have transcribed my friends and I talking in McDonald’s before
college and the third transcript is of my dad and grandparents and myself
talking about one of my dad’s cycling trips. The contexts aren't based on
anything in particular because it decided that I would want to focus on some
elements of spontaneous speech, therefore I didn't ask any of the
conversational participants to talk about any one subject but let the conversation
flow naturally.
