這裡的基本問題是,我們處於一個多語言環境(希臘文、希伯來文、當地語言、廣泛溝通語言),但 Paratext 中的編輯器並不認識這一點。因此,專案 X 中的「所有內容」都是 X 語言。這種方法過於簡單化。
需要一種方法來標記希臘文、希伯來文和 LWC,並為每種語言使用獨特的 SFM 樣式,並在「有效/無效」清單中單獨維護它們。並且不要與 X 語言的字元、拼寫或詞彙清單混合。(即使是有效的 LWC 標點符號,對於語言 X 來說也可能是無效的。)
在我們工作的地方,今天我們可能會將腳註中來自 LWC 的詞中發現的某個奇怪字母標記為有效。但這樣做是否會導致有人使用該「有效」字元在 X 語言中引入錯別字的可能性?也就是說,它對 LWC 是有效的,但如果用於 X 語言,則是無效的。
那麼我們如何區分這一點?為什麼我們不能簡單地將這些標記為不同的語言?這似乎是最明顯的解決方案。我所知道的每個其他功能強大的編輯器都識別「語言」,在翻譯這項業務中,我們當然也應該如此。
承認這不需要經常使用,但它需要的頻率足以讓解決方案非常有用。(我同意 anon848905 的觀點,即只是「忽略」它們是一個不太理想的解決方案。)這些在某些情況下是「有效」的;我們需要 Paratext 足夠聰明,以識別上下文(SFM 括號)並根據其特定子集進行驗證。
The basic problem here is we are working in a multilingual world (Greek, Hebrew, local language, language of wider communication), but the editor in Paratext does not recognize that. So “everything” in project X is in the X language. And this approach is just too simplistic.
What is needed is a way to mark Greek, Hebrew, and LWC, with unique SFM styles (for each) and these be maintained separately in the “Valid/Invalid” list. And NOT be mixed in with the X Language’s character, spelling, or wordlist inventories. (Even valid LWC punctuation might be invalid for language X.)
Where we work, today we might mark some weird letter as valid found in a word from the LWC in a footnote. But does doing this open the possibility that someone may introduce a typo in X language using that “valid” character, because we marked it as valid? I.e. it is valid for the LWC, but it is INVALID if used in the X Language.
So how do we differentiate this? And why can’t we just mark these as different languages? That seems the most obvious solution. Every other reasonably powerful editor I know recognizes “language”, surely we should in this business of translation.
Granted, this isn’t needed a lot, but it is needed often enough that a solutions would be very helpful. (And I agree with anon848905 that just “ignoring” them is a less than ideal solution.) These are “valid” in certain cases; we need Paratext to be smart enough to recognize the context (the SFM brackets) and validate them based on their particular subset.
