While partial cognates do constitute problem for the phonological reconstruction of individual morphemes, they problematic phylogenetic based on comparative word lists. We review current practices preparing cognate-coded lists develop new approaches that make process cognate annotation more transparent. Comparing four methods by which judgments can be converted to whole newly annotated data set 19 Chinese dialect varieties, we find choice conversion method has an impact inferred tree topologies cannot ignored. conclude scholars should take great care with compounding recommend always assigning transparently.
