<tabel> element within an <u> element #6

Open Tanja0406 opened 4 years ago

Tanja0406 commented 4 years ago

Dear Tomaz, dear Andrej, In our corpus we have the case, that the speaker is reading out loud a text and then there are sometimes tables in it. So we have now in a

element, which does not validate, because
is not included in the parla-clarin. So therefore I have some questions:

  • Would it be possible to include the element within a in the schema that we could model our texts?
  • If it is not possible to include the element within a what would be your suggested work-around or solution? Looking forward to your suggestions. Tanja

Currently you cannot use <table> as the TEI module for Tables, Formulæ, Notated Music, and Graphics is not included in the ODD. But this is only because we didn't see any use case for tables, figures etc. as defined by this module. Obviously we were wrong, so we should add this module.

In which case, you still won't be able to use <table> directly in <u>, as that is not allowed in TEI. But you can use <table> inside <writing> (https://clarin-eric.github.io/parla-clarin/#TEI.writing) inside <u> (once the schema is upgraded, of course), which seems also appropriate semantically.

Thank you for the answer. That sounds reasonable. So we will then proceed this way. and use tabel inside writing inside u.

Added the module figures to ODD and recompiled the schemas in d0d50a42dee346878b4a0e56da17b26759fd8790. Leaving the issue open, because we also need to mention the new elements in the documentation.

Dear all, we were discussing the solution and we were wondering, if it is okay to use <table> also within <quote>because we have indicators like for example .... der Antrag hat folgenden Wortlaut:".... Tabelle... With the updated schema also this solution validates.

TomazErjavec commented 4 years ago

Yes, I think it is ok, maybe even better than <writing>, which is defined as "contains a passage of written text revealed to participants in the course of a spoken text", because, if my German is good enough, this is not only revealed but in fact quoted.

Tanja0406 commented 4 years ago

Perfect, yes it is more like a quote in these case. Great, than we will do so.
