This paper describes the strategies that have been developed for creating consistent gloss annotations in the latest update to the Corpus NGT. Although the project aims to embrace the plea for ID-glosses in Johnston (2008), there is no reference lexicon that could be used in the creation of the annotations. An idiosyncratic strategy was developed that involved the creation of a temporary ‘glossing lexicon’, which includes conventions for distinguishing regional and other variants, true and apparent homonymy, and other difficulties that are specifically related to the glossing of two-handed simultaneous constructions on different tiers.
