Ah, I understand. I agree it is a good idea to tackle one problem at a time.
My prediction is that TTR will remain language dependant, but TTR is not our greatest problem (it only is when looking at really small windows, i.e. reduplication patterns).
What I would test then is whether you get the "bag of words" effect on the one hand and reduplication patterns on the other. The first will probably depend on the style of the note taker? It would be interesting if someone with experience along these lines could test this. Reduplication patterns are probably trickier, and I suspect you need specific circumstances for these to occur regularly.
