fixed terms in IGT validation #147

Closed fmatter closed 2 years ago

fmatter commented 2 years ago

The valid_igt validator talks about morphemes and glosses, but what is meant are words (i.e. analyzed object language words) and word glosses (or whatever you want to call them). What is validated is Leipzig Glossing Rule # 1, not # 2.

fmatter commented 2 years ago

Actual morphemes and (morpheme) glosses are not validated, but do you want to enforce Leipzig Glossing Rule #2 in CLDF datasets? Using pyigt would be an option for that.

xrotwang commented 2 years ago

Ah, yes, that's true. We fail to cover the morpheme level. While there may be ways to do that in CLDF (see https://github.com/cldf/cldf/blob/master/faq.md#how-can-i-specify-tertiary-separators-for-csv-files), I think you are right that pyigt might be the better place - also to wire in stuff like the recommended gloss abbreviations from LGR.
