-# Scription

-This document specifies a simple text format for representing linguistic texts as interlinear glossed examples. This format, known as `scription` (a term coined by [Patrick J. Hall][Pat Hall] (University of California, Santa Barbara)), makes it easy to quickly enter data. It is easily read by humans, and easily converted to other formats used in documentary linguistics.
