TLS Reference Fields



Most of the fields in the TLS database consist of vocabulary words from the approximately 120 languages for which data was collected. However, there are additional fields in the database which can be used to reference the vocabulary words in the TLS languages. Right now, the following reference fields exist in the database--not all are ready for use yet, as noted:

Field Name
Field Content
ENGLISHEnglish glosses of the TLS vocabulary words.
SWAHILISwahili glosses of the TLS vocabulary words.
POSThe part of speech of the word.
TLS_NoThe reference number of the word from the TLS survey.
(See the TLS info file for a description of the survey.)
