How to insert new senses? #42

Closed Alatius closed 1 year ago

Alatius commented 6 years ago

In those cases where a "sense" has not been properly marked in the XML, how should it be added, with regard to the "id" attribute? For example, in the very first article there should be senses inserted between "n0.9" and "n0.10", as well as between "n0.13" and "n0.14". If I correct this and insert sense tags, what value should I give to their id attributes?

Hi @Alatius,

Past work has added lowercase letters to insert missing entries or senses: <sense id="n46529.31a" n="(e)" level="5"> <sense id="n46529.31b" n="(z)" level="5">

I'm guessing you mean lat.ls.perseus_eng1.xml (http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus%3atext%3a1999.04.0059)

  1. a. (α): <sense id="n0.9" n="a" level="4">Into &eacute;. (a) Most frequently in the second part of compounds, particularly...

-> <sense id="n0.9" n="a" level="4">Into &eacute;.</sense> <sense id="n0.9a" n="(a)" level="5">(a) Most frequently in the second part of compounds, particularly...

etc.

Thank you! Yes, I meant Lewis & Short, sorry about that.
