Extra Glossing transcription line
Traditional transliteration of Hieroglyphic Ancient Egyptian uses punctuation, too. This punctuation is in conflict with the punctuation as defined by the Glossing Rules.
Compare the following table:
Puctuation | In traditional transliteration of Ancient Egyptian | In Glossing Rules |
---|---|---|
. | Affix or prefix | Portmanteau morpheme |
= | ‘Suffix’ pronoun | Clitic |
- | Compound, or combined name phrase | Affix |
: | Causal prefix s: | (Unspecified) seperable morpheme |
( ) | Non-overt phonemes, scholarly reconstruction | Inherent category |
[ ] | Completely destroyed text (lacuna), potentially with reconstructed content |
‘Zero’ morpheme |
⌈ ⌉ | Partially destroyed text, potentially with reconstructed content |
— |
{ } | Emendation of a scribal error (deletion), or Certain orthographical convention |
— |
< > | Emendation of a scribal error (addition) | Infix |
~ | — | Reduplication morpheme |
\ | — | Transfix |
_ | — | Fixed phrase |
\ | — | Ablaut phenomenon |
/ | (Options) | Ambigous morpheme |
In order to prevent any confusion, it is strongly advisable or, as far as “-” and “=” are concerned, even mandatory not to use these symbols in their traditional meaning in the Glossing transcription line (directly above the Glossing line).
- Problematic example
Egyptological transcription | m=[ṯn] | ⌈wj⌉ | <r>ḫ{r}.k(w) | s.t={t}<ṯ>n | ḫnt(ï).t | dwꜢ.t |
Glosses | ATTN-2PL | =1SG | get_to_know\RES-1SG.RES | seat:F[SG]-2PL | in_front-ADJZ-F | netherworld:F[SG] |
Consequently, the encoder needs to add an extra ‘Glossing transcription line’ between the Egyptological Transcription line and the Glossing line.
- Example
Egyptological transcription | m=[ṯn] | ⌈wj⌉ | <r>ḫ{r}.k(w) | s.t={t}<ṯ>n | ḫnt(ï).t | dwꜢ.t |
Glossing transcription | m-ṯn | =wj | rḫ-kw | st-ṯn | ḫnt-ï-t | dwꜢt |
Glosses | ATTN-2PL | =1SG | get_to_know\RES-1SG.RES | seat:F[SG]-2PL | in_front-ADJZ-F | netherworld:F[SG] |
In the Glossing transcription line, all symbols need to be used according to the Glossing Rules. In the Traditional transcription line, however, the encoder may use all the symbols according to his/her Egyptological tradition.
Hands-on transliteration transformation guidelines
To derive a valid Glossing transcription line from an Egyptological transcription line, the follwoing hand-on rules may help.
Compare the following table:
Egyptological transliteration line | Glossing transliteration line |
---|---|
. | - (affix) or : (separable), respectively |
: | - (affix) or : (separable), respectively |
= | - (affix) [to be discussed] |
- | new word, or, eventually, = (clitic) or, eventually, Fixed phrase |
( ) | leave parentheses out |
[ ] | leave brackets out |
⌈ ⌉ | leave brackets out |
< > | leave brackets out |
{ } | leave brackets and their content out |
