Short description 

    LumaLiDaOn (Version 1) was the first version of the Linguistic Diary of Luma, an European Portuguese Child. The Diary consists of nearly daily online phonetic transcriptions of child speech made by the parents, both of them trained phoneticians and phonologists. The database structure contains the following fields: (A) phonetic transcription of child utterance; (B) adapted phonetic orthography of child utterance; (C) phonetic transcription of the target; (D) orthography of the target; (E) utterance meaning; (F) notes on the context of production; (G) date of child utterance; (H) child age. Fields from (I) to (R) were empty and are intended to include codification on different aspects of the grammar as they are studied by different researchers (in version 1, only Field R includes some information, such as sentence type). Field (S) is devoted to general comments. Version 1 of the database has 5191 entries produced between 01;01.26 and 03;00.07 (with a total 17.229 words). The database is in Access format.

    LumaLiDaOn (Version 2) includes data until 3;04, together with the labelling for prosodic phrasing of all the data (Field O). The Version 2 of the database has 6426 entries (with a total of 22521 words).
