-**Please note:** In the browsing tool ANNIS, we created [[01_corpus:01_subcorpora|sub-corpora]] per language, where each message appears in one and only one sub-corpus, even though there may be several languages annotated as lang_100_and_more for a specific chat. If you want to work with all chats that contain a specific language in more than 100 messages, use the query //msg & meta::lang_100_and_more=“fra, gsw”// on the whole corpus.
+Please note: In the browsing tool ANNIS, we created sub-corpora per language, where each message appears in one and only one sub-corpus. In most cases, this it the language that delivers more than 100 chats. If there are two languages providing more than 100 messages, we arbitrarily prioritized the languages: ROH > GSW > FRA > DEU > ITA > ENG/SPA/SLA.
