Chorus, like and sounds not from the speaker like, et cetera, are always on a separate line.Sounds that the speaker makes are always on the same line and always in the present tense.The notes are always written in lower case regardless of the position in a sentence. Sound events that are significant to the audio should also be noted.Always research the proper capitalization e.g., iPhone, UCLA, SaaSĪlways write links like this: Never write it like this: w w w dot facebook dot com slash groups slash gotranscript.Right British English: Dr, Mrs (without the period) NEVER use the Tab button, only one click of the Space button. Speaker labels must be written in bold, followed by a colon and space.Still, it's important that you are able to at least identify the person asking questions or leading the discussion. But if you cannot identify who is speaking throughout most of the transcript, it's better to then mark the speakers with a generic label like Interviewee or Participant.
If you cannot identify who exactly is speaking, add a question mark before the speaker label.This is optional and is not considered to be an error. The same goes for the titles (Doctor, Pastor, et cetera).
uh, um, *you know, *like, *I mean, *so, *kind of, well, sort of… Be mindful of the context.
