Project Description

This project involves reading of the first two sentences of Don Quixote by Cervantes. Here is the passage: "En un lugar de La Mancha, de cuyo nombre no quiero acordarme, no ha mucho tiempo que vivía un hidalgo de los de lanza en astillero, adarga antigua, rocín flaco y galgo corredor. Una olla de algo más vaca que carnero, salpicón las más noches, duelos y quebrantos los sábados, lentejas los viernes, algún palomino de añadidura los domingos, consumían las tres partes de su hacienda."

Participants include 74 AD, 197 HC, and 90 MCI. For demographic details see this sheet . We plan to create CHAT output using Batchalign system, particularly if we get requests for the further use of these data.
