Question

If a speaker had made grammatical mistake, how would a worker have to transcribe it.( for instance, " I has a puppy".)?​

Answer 1

Do not correct grammatical errors made by the speaker. ''I has a puppy.'

• According to the rules that a transcriber has to follow, he should not change the words of a speaker. The transcriber has to type all the words said by the speaker in exactly the same way whether it be right or wrong.

• Hence, although the transcriber knows that the sentence should be 'I have a puppy' yet still he should transcribe it as 'I has a puppy,'

Answer 2

Do not correct the speaker's grammatical faults. 'I have a puppy,' says the narrator.

A transcriber is not allowed to change the words of a speaker, according to the guidelines. The transcriber must type exactly the same way all of the words stated by the speaker, whether correct or incorrect.

As a result, even though the transcriber understands the sentence should be 'I have a puppy,' he should nonetheless transcribe it as 'I has a puppy.'
