Goals

This is a questionnaire designed to investigate agreement in number and gender.

Protocol summary

It consists of a number of analytical questions guiding a linguist to a succint analysis of agreement (of number and gender) in the language in question. 

Development context

The database could be seen as a first step towards the Surrey Database of Agreement, where much more detailed criteria were employed.

The questionnaire was developed for the ESF Eurotyp project.
