Question: How to make resources from two types of files #783

Closed warpok closed 2 years ago

warpok commented 2 years ago

Hi Teus,

We need to make an Interlinear in Indonesian for the whole Bible. We'll do the NT first. Not having a good online Interlinear for Indonesian has been a big problem for Bible translation in general in Indonesia. Logos or Translator's Workplace do not have one. We have this file that might be used. Or we have a source where we could get a spreadsheet, rather than a comma delineated text. What do you suggest as the easiest way to make a simple interlinear that will display as a resource in BE? Obviously, the interlinear will need to dynamically wrap to adjust for screen size.

BYZ_Master_Word.txt

I would like to do two things with the Weymouth NT in Modern Speech. We have a sqilite file here. Do you know the way to change a sqlite to USFM?

WMNT.zip

The layout of the contents of the BYZ master word list that you attached looks like this:

Matthew 1:1.

010101,01,bibloV,976,N-NSF 010101,02,genesewV,1078,N-GSF 010101,03,ihsou,2424,N-GSM 010101,04,cristou,5547,N-GSM 010101,05,uiou,5207,N-GSM 010101,06,dauid,1138,N-PRI 010101,07,uiou,5207,N-GSM 010101,08,abraam,11,N-PRI

I guess one way to create the data needed for the interlinear would be to translate every keyword above into Indonesian. What is the translation of "bibloV" into Indonesian? What is "genesewV" in Indonesian? What is "ihsou" in Indonesian? And so on...

The contents of the SQLite file could be exported to text. It would then look, for example, like this:

730|22|14|Blessed are those who wash their robes clean, that they may have a right to the Tree of Life, and may go through the gates into the city.
730|22|15|The unclean are shut out, and so are all who practise magic, all fornicators, all murderers, and those who worship idols, and every one who loves falsehood and tells lies.
730|22|16|»I Jesus have sent My angel for him solemnly to declare these things to you among the Churches. I am the Root and the offspring of David, the bright Morning Star.«
730|22|17|The Spirit and the Bride say, `Come;' and whoever hears, let him say, `Come;' and let those who are thirsty come. Whoever will, let him take the Water of Life, without payment.
730|22|18|»I solemnly declare to every one who hears the words of the prophecy contained in this book, that if any one adds to those words, God will add to him the plagues spoken of in this book;«
730|22|19|and that if any one takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God will take from him his share in the Tree of Life and in the holy city–the things described in this book.
730|22|20|»He who solemnly declares all this says,« `Yes, I am coming quickly.' Amen. Come, Lord Jesus.
730|22|21|The grace of the Lord Jesus be with God's people.

The numbers probably mean book - chapter - verse. Someone would need to convert those numbers to proper USFM.

Thanks! I'll be exploring those things.
