Responses

There follows a randomly selected sample of transcribed responses from the corpus.

Pemuzik yang saya suka ialah [Um] siapa Siti Nurhalizah ya sebab ia mempunya [Um] apa ni mempunyai lagu yang baik-baik tentang tradisi dan boleh juga digunakan [Um] melalui lagunya menyampaikan kepada masyarakat-masyarakat macam dia buli [Um] apa macam  mau bagi contoh-contoh yang baik lah kepada generasi yang datang.
Variasi cuaca yang ada di negara kami iaitu [Um] ada dua variasi iaitu monson timur laut  sama itu monson barat daya lah itu lah yang memang ada di negara kami.
[noise] Kebimbangan saya tentang telefon bimbit ini adalah yang pertama sekali, penggunaan yang melampau. Sebab, saya perhatikan apabila kita terlalu menggunakan telefon bimbit dalam tempoh jangka masa yang lama kita akan mudah rasa penat dan juga lesu. Ataupun kita akan mudah cepat betul mengantuk jadi bila kita sudah mengantuk kita akan leka untuk melakukan aktiviti lai-
Berana-beranang adalah satu [Um] yang saya suka sebab di samping [Um] untuk senaman dan [Um] menenangkan diri.
Setakat ini sistem sokongan sosial yang disediakan kerajaan saya rasa masih kurang lagi kurang meluas digunakan seluruh rakyat mungkin faktor [Um] setempat, budaya faktor lokasi perlu diperbaiki.
