Findings from specialist literature

  1. RF-GRI-01 · Data provenance

    Project documentation separates audio-bearing 2013 data from transcription-only 2011 material. B33 databaseInfo.php provenance paragraphs

    LIMIT No item-level recording check; overlapping localities across B40 2011 and B33 2013 do not by themselves establish identical witnesses.

    Passage inspected Withheld, under review

  2. RF-GRI-02 · Transcription

    The manual defines orthographic and analytical tiers separately. B34 pp.1–2; convention notes pp.3–4

    LIMIT Do not promote orthographic text or correspondence tables to individual sourced IPA attestations.

    Passage inspected Withheld, under review

  3. RF-GRI-03 · Annotation dependency

    B35 describes 330 mostly elicited utterances from nine speakers and adds annotation to existing UoI material, qualifying derived subword timing. B35 §3 p.37; §§4,4.1–4.2; §7

    LIMIT Mostly elicited is not natural conversation by default; annotation is not a second collection. No licence identified in inspected passages; dataset permission unverified.

    Passage inspected Withheld, under review

  4. RF-GRI-04 · Historical syntax and contact

    Baldissera analyses modal-can infinitives as Medieval continuation and finish complements as Salentino loan translation. B40 §1.1 p.36; §2.3 pp.39–40; §4 p.42

    LIMIT Attributed construction-specific analyses, not independent verification of Medieval witnesses or antiquity continuity; wider-area predictions remain hypotheses.
