Summary/Abstract: This work is based on audio and video material collected during anthropological and linguistic research of Serbian communities in the Danube gorge in Romania (specifically in Belobreşca settlement), 2017. A multimodal transcript of narrative on the cultivation and processing of hemp was created. It shows that besides verbal elements in narration, non-verbal elements – gestures are used too. An analysis of the multimodal transcript of narrative indicates the dominant use of three types of gestures – iconic, deictic, and beat, whose lexical affiliates belong to the category of verbs, adjectives and deictic words (mostly demonstrative pronouns). The paper also discusses the possibility of creating comparable multimodal corpora.
