No, I only transcribed it from audio recording. There was no reporter present, which made it even worse. These were strictly World Bank-produced standard audiotape recordings. I had absolutely no hard-copy materials to work from.<br />
<br />
A reporter on site would have been SWEET for me as the transcriptionist, though he or she may not have liked it too much. LOL

I hate those kinds of jobs. I've not had anything that would seemingly be THAT bad, though--knock on wood. Tell me you didn't have to read back at least:)

Why, of course, Lisa. Hey, you know, I've become a pretty good Googler in my old age, mainly out of necessity.<br />
<br />
One of the HARDEST jobs I ever transcribed in my life was a World Bank conference entitled "The Realm of Sacred Architecture and Places." There was one synagogue in India that I just could not get the spelling for. I searched and searched and searched. I kept inserting various keywords and similar-sounding spellings of how I thought it was spelled on Google.<br />

I kept inserting various keywords and similar-sounding spellings of how I thought it was spelled on Google.<br />
<br />
I found that spelling. It was one of my biggest triumphs to get that spelling of that synagogue in India. I wasn't going to give up. This was probably the hardest job I had ever done in my life. Here's one snippet, and the entire job was just like this:<br />
<br />
Two tevahs in a synagogue, one in the center and one up above, can be seen in other typical Sephardic synagogues all over the world. This one, an 18th century synagogue in Borçka in Turkey is called Geirush, which means "expulsion" in Hebrew. Is it possible that they all use a Spanish model which is lost now? As far away as Kadavumbagham Synagogue in Cochin, India, this faraway custom existed.<br />
<br />
It was one of those jobs where you couldn't type one sentence without stopping to Google. It was in 1999 that I typed this, and I still haven't gotten over that transcript yet. LOL<br />
<br />

Thank you, Jennie! I did some major googling last night, and haplography was all I could come up with as well. Since haplog isn't a word, I guess I will use [sic] after it and let it go at that. Does that sound right to you?

Wow! You might be right, Jennie. But even if you aren't, thanks for the new ( to me) word! Never heard that one before. Might come in handy one day.

haplography [hæpˈlɒgrəfɪ]<br />
n pl -phies<br />
(Linguistics) the accidental writing of only one letter or syllable where there should be two similar letters or syllables, as in spelling endodontics as endontics<br />
[from Greek, from haplous single + -graphy]<br />

The speaker could have made up a word derived from "haplography," i.e., "haplog." LOL
