The dialect questionnaire
Most AHEYM interviews open with questions from the project's Yiddish linguistic questionnaire: a word or a sentence is given in Russian (in Romania and Hungary in Romanian or Hungarian) and the speaker says it in Yiddish. The catalogue marks these stretches but does not say which items were asked; a reading of machine transcripts of the 597 questionnaire stretches found 7938 questions, grouped here into 677 items. Each item lists the moments it was asked, so you can hear every speaker's answer. The grouping and the links were made from machine transcripts: the moments are reliable, the glosses mostly, and nothing here is a verified transcription — how this was made.
