The following are abbreviations for speakers:

Αγγ
Γρη
Μακ
Μαρ
Σως
Τρο

which I guess should be normalised to the full speaker name for this purpose.

[seumasjeltzz]

Right, I wonder if they should be all-caps in the text.

Also, are we going to run into a problem with Σοφία and σωφία?

[seumasjeltzz]

Everything on this list is a proper name, or else a speaker tag.

[jtauber]

I don't mind either way with the speaker tags but I might special-case them as they're also being flagged by my current code for not being accented.

By Σοφία and σωφία do you mean Σοφία (the proper name) and σοφία (the abstract noun)? There's no issue in terms of what it should be normalised to. The only issue might be my automated code might not always know which is meant at the start of a paragraph / direct speech or wherever else you decided to contextually capitalise.

For now, can I get away with just assuming Σοφία is always the proper name and σοφία the abstract noun? We can always support context-specific overrides if this isn't the case.

[seumasjeltzz]

re 3) For now, yes you can assume that. Not least because I haven't introduced σοφία as an abstract noun.

special case speaker tags for now, that seems most workable for the present.
