\begin_layout Abstract
This paper describes some features that \SpecialChar LyX
provides to linguists.
It demonstrates how to use some native support in order to produce numbered
examples, glosses, OT tableaux, semantic markup, and phonetic symbols (IPA).
\end_layout
\begin_layout Section
Aims and prerequisites
\end_layout
\begin_layout Standard
Basically, this paper describes the features of the
\begin_inset Quotes eld
\end_inset
Linguistics
\begin_inset Quotes erd
\end_inset
module that ships with \SpecialChar LyX
as of version 1.6.0.
\begin_inset Quotes eld
\end_inset
Modules
\begin_inset Quotes erd
\end_inset
are support files (introduced with \SpecialChar LyX
1.6.0) that can easily be selected for
any document.
In order to use the Linguistics module, go to
\family sans
Document\SpecialChar menuseparator
Settings\SpecialChar menuseparator
Modules
\family default
, select
\begin_inset Quotes eld
\end_inset
Linguistics
\begin_inset Quotes erd
\end_inset
from the list of available modules, and hit the
\family sans
Add
\family default
button to select it for your document (as already done for this document).
\end_layout
\begin_layout Standard
You should be able to use the module with any document class (please inform
me, if not).
However, in order to use all the features, you need to have the following
\SpecialChar LaTeX
packages installed:
\end_layout
\begin_layout Enumerate
\emph on
covington.sty
\emph default
\begin_inset CommandInset citation
LatexCommand cite
key "covington"
\end_inset
: This is the base package used for numbered examples and glosses.
\begin_inset Separator parbreak
\end_inset
\end_layout
\begin_deeper
\begin_layout Itemize
Installed on your system:
\begin_inset Info

\end_layout
\end_deeper
\begin_layout Enumerate
\emph on
enumitem.sty
\emph default
\begin_inset CommandInset citation
LatexCommand cite
key "enumitem"
\end_inset
: This package is used for the Subexamples style.
It is generally useful to alter the appearance of lists (such as
\emph on

\emph default
).
\begin_inset Separator parbreak

\begin_layout Section
Numbered examples
\end_layout
\begin_layout Standard
Numbered examples are inserted via the layout drop-down box in the toolbar.
There are three variants:
\end_layout
\begin_layout Numbered Example (multiline)
This is a multiline example [Style
\emph on
Numbered Example (multiline)
\emph default
]
\end_layout
\begin_layout Numbered Example (multiline)
it can have several paragraphs
\end_layout
\begin_layout Numbered Examples (consecutive)
This is a single example
\begin_inset CommandInset label
LatexCommand label
name "exa:single-example"
\end_inset
[Style
\emph on
Numbered Example (consecutive)
\emph default
]
\end_layout
\begin_layout Numbered Examples (consecutive)
Consecutive single examples get their own numbers
\end_layout
\begin_layout Subexample
This is a subexample
\begin_inset CommandInset label
LatexCommand label
name "sub:subexample"
\end_inset
[Style
\emph on
Subexample
\emph default
]
\end_layout
\begin_layout Subexample
And another one
\end_layout
\begin_layout Standard
References to examples are produced as usual: insert a label to the example
and a cross-reference via
\family sans
Insert\SpecialChar menuseparator
Cross references
\family default
.
We refer here, just for the sake of demonstrating this, to
\begin_inset CommandInset ref
LatexCommand ref
reference "exa:single-example"
\end_inset
and
\begin_inset CommandInset ref
LatexCommand ref
reference "sub:subexample"
\end_inset
.
\end_layout
\begin_layout Standard
If you want to modify the numbering of an individual example, you can use
\family sans
Insert\SpecialChar menuseparator
Custom Numbering
\family default
.
\end_layout
\begin_layout Section
Glosses
\end_layout
\begin_layout Standard
The Linguistics module provides two kinds of glosses, which can be inserted
via
\family sans
Insert\SpecialChar menuseparator
Custom Insets
\family default
: The standard
\emph on
Custom:Glosse
\emph default
provides a gloss that consists of two lines and a translation, the
\emph on
Custom:Tri-Glosse
\emph default
insets consists of three lines and a translation.
Each translation line might span multiple lines in the output, i.
\begin_inset space \thinspace{}
\end_inset
e., the paragraphs are automatically broken if they exceed the text width.
Note that the translation line is mandatory and must be preceded by the
command
\family typewriter
\backslash
glt
\family default
which must be inserted verbatim in the gloss inset (\SpecialChar TeX
mode is not needed,
and in fact not even possible).
\end_layout
\begin_layout Standard
Here is a simple example:
\end_layout
\begin_layout Standard
\begin_inset Flex Glosse
status open
\begin_layout Plain Layout
C'est un exemple simple
\end_layout
\begin_layout Plain Layout
{This is} an example simple
\end_layout
\begin_layout Plain Layout
\backslash
glt This is a simple example
\end_layout
\end_inset
\end_layout
\begin_layout Standard
\noindent
Note how the braces hold together multi-word expressions.
\end_layout
\begin_layout Standard
In the same vein, we can make a three-line gloss:
\end_layout
\begin_layout Standard
\begin_inset Flex Tri-Glosse
status open
\begin_layout Plain Layout
C'est un exemple simple
\end_layout
\begin_layout Plain Layout
{Das ist} ein Beispiel einfach
\end_layout
\begin_layout Plain Layout
{This is} an example simple
\end_layout
\begin_layout Plain Layout
\backslash
glt This is a simple example
\end_layout
\end_inset
\end_layout
\begin_layout Standard
\noindent
If you want to have numbered glosses, you can simply insert the gloss inset
to a numbered examples paragraph, as follows:
\end_layout
\begin_layout Numbered Examples (consecutive)
\begin_inset Flex Tri-Glosse
status open
\begin_layout Plain Layout
Mein Luftkissenfahrzeug ist voller Aale
\end_layout
\begin_layout Plain Layout
My skeertuig is vol palings
\end_layout
\begin_layout Plain Layout
My hovercraft is {full of} eels
\end_layout
\begin_layout Plain Layout
\backslash
glt Do you have matches?
\end_layout
\end_inset
\end_layout
\begin_layout Subsection*
Shortcomings of \SpecialChar LyX
's glosses
\end_layout
\begin_layout Standard
\SpecialChar LyX
's glosse support is rather basic, and thus has some shortcomings, which
might be addressed in further releases:
\end_layout
\begin_layout Enumerate
Font changes are not allowed in glosses.
Hence, the
\family sans
Character Style
\family default
dialog is disabled.
Since glosses are not hyphenated, an explicit language setting in the \SpecialChar LaTeX
output is not required (in fact, it would break the output, since covington
does not support it).
However, you still might want to set the language for proper spell checking.
Currently, you have to do this as follows: select the text, and then issue
\begin_inset Info
type "shortcut"
arg "command-execute"
\end_inset
\family sans
language <lang>
\family default
, where
\family sans
<lang>
\family default
should be replaced by the respective language, e.
\begin_inset space \thinspace{}
\end_inset
g.
\family sans
english
\family default
,
\family sans
french
\family default
or
\family sans
ngerman
\family default
.
In the \SpecialChar LaTeX
output, this setting will be suppressed.
\end_layout
\begin_layout Enumerate
Since the content of glosses is passed verbatim to \SpecialChar LaTeX
, \SpecialChar LyX
does not adapt the
encoding to the contents.
That means that if you use characters in the glosse which are not covered
by the current encoding, you will run into an error message.
Here are the possible workarounds to this problem:
\begin_inset Separator parbreak
\end_inset
\end_layout
\begin_deeper
\begin_layout Itemize
Either enter the text outside the glosse, open
\family sans
View\SpecialChar menuseparator
View Source
\family default
and copy the \SpecialChar LaTeX
code into the glosse,
\end_layout
\begin_layout Itemize
or mark the whole glosse (from outside) and set the appropriate language
via
\family sans
Edit\SpecialChar menuseparator
Language\SpecialChar menuseparator
More Languages\SpecialChar ldots
\family default
,
\end_layout
\begin_layout Itemize
or set the document encoding to
\emph on
Unicode (utf8)
\emph default
via
\family sans
Document\SpecialChar menuseparator
Settings\SpecialChar ldots
\SpecialChar menuseparator
Language
\family default
,
\end_layout
\begin_layout Itemize
or check
\emph on
Use non-\SpecialChar TeX
fonts (via Xe\SpecialChar TeX
/Lua\SpecialChar TeX
)
\emph default
in
\family sans
Document\SpecialChar menuseparator
Settings\SpecialChar ldots
\SpecialChar menuseparator
Fonts
\family default
.
\end_layout
\end_deeper
\begin_layout Enumerate
Page breaks can occur within glosses, which is of course not desirable.
A workaround is to wrap glosses into boxes (via
\family sans
Insert\SpecialChar menuseparator
Box\SpecialChar menuseparator
Frameless
\family default
).
If you want to automate this for all glosses, you can copy the following
code to
\family sans
Document\SpecialChar menuseparator
Settings\SpecialChar menuseparator
\SpecialChar LaTeX

\end_layout
\end_deeper
\begin_layout Section
Optimality Theory Tableaux
\end_layout
\begin_layout Standard
OT tableaux itself can of course simply be inserted as ordinary tables (for
specific features such as dashed lines and shaded cells, cf.
the
\emph on
EmbeddedObjects
\emph default
manual).
However, you might want to have the tableaux numbered throughout the document,
and you might want to have a
\emph on
List of Tableaux
\emph default
, similar to the
\emph on
List of Tables
\emph default
.
\end_layout
\begin_layout Standard
The Linguistics module provides support for both.
In
\family sans
Insert\SpecialChar menuseparator
Floats
\family default
, you'll find a Tableaux float:

\end_layout
\begin_layout Standard
Note that by default, the caption is always placed below the tableaux in
the output, no matter where you put it in the \SpecialChar LyX
window.
To get the Tableaux captions on top, put the following code in
\family sans
Document\SpecialChar menuseparator
Settings\SpecialChar menuseparator
Preamble
\family default
:
\end_layout
\begin_layout LyX-Code
\backslash
floatstyle{plaintop}
\end_layout
\begin_layout LyX-Code
\backslash
restylefloat{tableau}
\end_layout
\begin_layout Standard
If your using a KOMA class, use the following instead for better spacing:
\end_layout
\begin_layout LyX-Code
\backslash
floatstyle{komaabove}
\end_layout
\begin_layout LyX-Code
\backslash
restylefloat{tableau}
\end_layout
\begin_layout Standard
A List of Tableaux inset can be found in
\family sans
Insert\SpecialChar menuseparator
Lists & TOC
\family default
.
Even though this usually is placed at the beginning or the end of the document,
we do this here for exemplification purposes:
\end_layout

\end_layout
\begin_layout Section
Semantic Markup (Character Styles)
\end_layout
\begin_layout Standard
The Linguistics module comes with some character styles that are common
in linguistics:
\end_layout
\begin_layout Enumerate
Concept (in small caps):
\begin_inset Flex Concepts
status collapsed
\begin_layout Plain Layout
concept
\end_layout
\end_inset
\end_layout
\begin_layout Enumerate
Expression (emphasized):
\begin_inset Flex Expression

\begin_layout Plain Layout

\end_layout
\end_inset
\end_layout
\begin_layout Enumerate
Meaning (in single quotes):
\begin_inset Flex Meaning
status collapsed
\begin_layout Plain Layout
meaning
\end_layout
\end_inset
\end_layout
\begin_layout Standard
You can insert the character styles via the
\family sans
Edit\SpecialChar menuseparator
Text Style
\family default
submenu.
If you need to change the appearance of these styles later, you can redefine
them in the preamble.
To make expressions bold, for instance, insert:
\end_layout
\begin_layout LyX-Code
\backslash
renewcommand
\backslash
lingexpr[1]{
\backslash
textbf{#1}}
\end_layout
\begin_layout Standard
Similarly, concept (
\family typewriter
\backslash
lingconcept
\family default
) and meaning (
\family typewriter
\backslash
lingmeaning
\family default
) can be modified.
\end_layout
\begin_layout Section
Phonetic Symbols (IPA)
\end_layout
\begin_layout Standard
You do not need the Linguistics module to insert phonetic symbols, this
is a base functionality of \SpecialChar LyX
.
However, since this is frequently used by linguists, we will describe it
(briefly) in this manual nevertheless.
\end_layout
\begin_layout Standard
If you use traditional \SpecialChar LaTeX
or PDF\SpecialChar LaTeX
, a prerequisite to use \SpecialChar LyX

The recommended way to insert phonetic symbols is via
\family sans
Insert\SpecialChar menuseparator
Special characters\SpecialChar menuseparator
Phonetic symbols.
\family default
This gives you an input box (
\begin_inset Quotes eld
\end_inset
inset
\begin_inset Quotes erd
\end_inset
in \SpecialChar LyX
speak), where you can insert the symbols.
Note that this box can be used both for the insertion of small snippets
(inline) and multiple paragraphs of phonetic notation.
While the cursor is inside the box, a toolbar opens, which provides the
basic set of phonetic symbols (sorted by the IPA categories).
Each of the toolbar's panels can be torn off the bar by clicking on the
dashed line on its top.
This way, you can insert most symbols quite comfortably:
\begin_inset IPA

Note that, if you want to insert diacritics, the diacritics are inserted
\emph on
after
\emph default
the base character.
That is to say, for
\begin_inset IPA
\begin_layout Standard
[d̥]
\end_layout
\end_inset
you need to insert
\family typewriter
<d>
\family default
and then the
\family typewriter
<voiceless>
\family default
subring diacritic from the toolbar immediately after the
\family typewriter
<d>
\family default
.
If you need a diacritic alone, you can achieve this by inserting a blank
and then the diacritic, as in
\begin_inset IPA
\begin_layout Standard
̼
\end_layout
\end_inset
(
\family typewriter
=
\begin_inset space ~
\end_inset
<space>+<Lingolabial from the IPA toolbar>
\family default
).
\end_layout
\end_inset
Given that
\emph on
preview-latex
\emph default
is installed and you have switched on instant preview (in
\family sans
Tools\SpecialChar menuseparator
Preferences\SpecialChar menuseparator
Graphi
\family default
cs), you'll get a nice WYSIWYG preview as soon as the cursor leaves the
box.
Alternatively to the toolbar, you can also insert the symbols directly
via the shortcut notation which is described in the
\emph on
tipa
\emph default
manual: here's
\begin_inset IPA
\begin_layout Standard
\family roman
\series medium
\shape up
\size normal
\emph off
\bar no
\strikeout off
\uuline off
\uwave off
\noun off
\color none
[@n Ig"zA:mpl]
\end_layout
\end_inset
(
\emph on
tipa
\emph default
shortcut notation:
\family typewriter
[@n Ig"zA:mpl
\family default
]).
Furthermore, you can insert symbols via
\family sans
Insert\SpecialChar menuseparator
Special characters\SpecialChar menuseparator
Symbols\SpecialChar ldots
\family default
(which might be useful for symbols that are not yet covered by the toolbar),
or you can simply paste unicode-encoded text (e.
\begin_inset space \thinspace{}
\end_inset
g., from other applications) into the box.
The output should be equal, no matter what input method you chose.
\end_layout
\begin_layout Standard
Note that you can also insert or paste most IPA glyphs outside the specific
IPA input box: [əz ʃəʊn hɪə].
In the output, they will be automatically transformed into the correct
\emph on
tipa
\emph default
macro (if not, please inform us).
However, please note that this method produces inferior output quality,
since it will most likely result in a mix of fonts (the latin characters
are taken from the base document font, the IPA glyphs from the IPA font).
Within the IPA input box, on the other hand, the IPA font is used for all
characters.
So unless you only need to insert single IPA characters, using the IPA
input box is highly recommended.
