\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, 
\change_inserted -712698321 1559649291
interlinear 
\change_unchanged
glosses, OT tableaux, semantic markup, structure trees, and phonetic symbols
 (IPA).

\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

\change_inserted -712698321 1561204748
 Note that at least version 2.3 of the covington package is required to use
 all features.

 It now uses the new and enhanced

 Due to the major changes, old glosses cannot be converted to the new style.
 Instead, the old insets are imported (and saved in the document as a

Avoiding Page Breaks within Glosses

age breaks might occur within glosses, which is not desirable.
 
\change_inserted -712698321 1559637701

\begin_layout Standard
If you use the linguistics module with

\end_layout

\begin_layout Itemize
If you want to use glosses in

\end_layout

\begin_layout Itemize
Older versions of the 
\emph on

\emph on

\emph on
covington

 try to define the commands

.
 In these older versions of

Meanwhile, many \SpecialChar LaTeX

 \SpecialChar LyX
 supports the 
\family sans

 syntax.
 The Linguistics module provides a Structure Tree inset, which can be inserted
 via 
\family sans
Insert\SpecialChar menuseparator

\family default
.
 Within this inset, you can insert the bracket notation used by 
\family sans

 Tree inset into a Preview inset (
\family sans
Insert\SpecialChar menuseparator
Preview
\family default
).
 If instant preview is correctly installed and activated, you should see
 the tree immediately (just click on the image in order to edit):

In order to align nodes of the tree more elegantly, use the

 All nodes which have the same

 Here is an example:

\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
's IPA support is
 the \SpecialChar LaTeX
 package 
\emph on
tipa
\emph default
 
\begin_inset CommandInset citation
LatexCommand cite
key "tipa"
literal "true"

\end_inset

, which is automatically loaded by \SpecialChar LyX
 if you follow the procedure described
 below.
 If you use Unicode fonts (i.
\begin_inset space \thinspace{}
\end_inset

e., if you have clicked 
\begin_inset Quotes eld
\end_inset

Use non-\SpecialChar TeX
 fonts
\begin_inset Quotes erd
\end_inset

 in 
\family sans
Document\SpecialChar menuseparator
Settings\SpecialChar menuseparator
Fonts
\family default
), the package 
\emph on
xunicode
\emph default
 is loaded instead (since 
\emph on
tipa
\emph default
 does not work in this context).
 
\begin_inset Foot

\begin_layout Plain Layout
See also https://github.com/wspr/fontspec/issues/280 and the discussion in
 docutils-devel (https://www.mail-archive.com/search?l=mid&q=1487664738.2405.6.camel%
40lyx.org).
\end_layout

\end_inset

 The 
\emph on
xunicode
\emph default
 package emulates the 
\emph on
tipa
\emph default
 output, but is not perfect at that, so some things might not look as expected.
 Furthermore, you need to take care in this case to use a font that includes
 the IPA glyphs (such as 
\emph on
CMU Serif
\emph default
 or 
\emph on
SIL Doulos
\emph default
).
 You can also specify an extra font only for IPA by adding the following
 to 
\family sans
Document\SpecialChar menuseparator
Settings\SpecialChar menuseparator
LaTeX Preamble
\family default
:
\end_layout

\begin_layout Standard
\begin_inset listings

useTIPAfont{
\backslash
ipafont}
\end_layout

\begin_layout Plain Layout

}
\end_layout

\end_inset

Additionally, and independent from which of the above approaches you use,
 if you want to have instant preview, you should have the 
\emph on
preview-latex
\emph default
 package 
\begin_inset CommandInset citation
LatexCommand cite
key "preview"
literal "true"

\end_inset

 installed.
\end_layout

\begin_layout Standard
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).
\begin_inset Foot

\begin_layout Plain Layout
Currently, there is one symbol missing: the labiodental flap (added to the
 IPA in 2005).
 This symbol is not yet supported by the 
\emph on
tipa
\emph default
 package and thus cannot be supported by LyX.
\end_layout

\end_inset

 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

[l

\begin_layout Plain Layout

\end_layout

\end_inset

k ðɪs]

\begin_inset Foot

\begin_layout Plain Layout
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>+<Linguolabial 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

Display
\family default
), 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

\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.
