The following is a progress report on COLT (A Corpus of London Teenager Language), the first large English corpus focussing on the language of teenagers. The paper consists of two parts: a description of the mark-up system that will be used for the prosodic transcription of the material is followed by a report on the most obvious linguistic and interactional trends that immediately struck us when we looked at the data.
