Alistair Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 (edited) In the screen grab on the blog posting (http://www.accordancebible.com/files/images/156056-custom.png), why is peloni 'almoni (line 4) in two different fonts? Is this a tagging error? Also, why are some of the transliteration in (curved brackets) and some in [square brackets]?

R. Mansfield Posted February 16, 2016 Author Share Posted February 16, 2016 More than likely peloni should be in Rosetta, but it got missed. Incidentally, since Rosetta (the transliteration font in Accordance) is serifed, I generally recommend a complementary serifed font for tools. I use Palatino. The parentheses should probably be brackets. I'm not certain whether the parentheses were there in the print edition or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Allison Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 We've just released an update to fix some of the italicized words preceding a transliterated word that should also be in a transliteration field. I'm not certain why some of the transliterated words are in parentheses and some in square brackets, but we've faithfully reproduced the original text.

Alistair Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 I guess peloni 'almoni is a load of b'loni. Or it may just be the first recorded instance of Polari? Which would explain why the nearer kinsman couldn't redeem Ruth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
