Elicitation
Table of contents
The technical term ‘elicitation’ is derived from the classic Latin verb elicere (to coax, entice, call forth, summon, extract, induce, provoke). In linguistics (as in sociology, social psychology, and other social sciences) elicitation is the general term for describing various methods of directed data collection and thus for corpus construction.
