PWKVN #86

Closed funderburkjim closed 7 months ago

This documents the digitization of the Nächtrage und Verbesserungen sections of PWK. The digitization was recently prepared by Thomas Malten and his typists in India. In turn much of the 'typical' markup was added by me, and the result prepared as a 'NEW DICTIONARY'. Currently, there is no 'application' of the additions and corrections to the PW dictionary itself. A specialized display allows one to investigate pwkvn along with Schmidt (sch) dictionary and pw dictionary.

This screen shows the point I had mentioned earlier, that Vol.7 entries often give the accent corrections in other volumes' VN entries.

Also I would like to show what did in SCH, before deciding that many of its entries differ (lost/skipped) in accent from pwkvn-- image

That is, I had made Devanagari strings (with accents of pw style) of the IAST string of SCH, to enable clear visible comparison. As seen at cologne texts, only MW99 seems to have such additional work (marking all transliterated Skt. words so as to show them in Devanagari script).

Probably CDSL might also consider doing this across all works showing Skt. words just in IAST, like BUR etc.

@Andhrabharati If you think this idea should be pursued further, please open a new issue in the cologne repository: https://github.com/sanskrit-lexicon/cologne/issues.

As for this issue 86, I am closing.
