| * an accent
acute ( / ) is used to indicate long
vowels, rather than the standard macron (-), e.g.
á = long
a * the HTML standards do not currently support accented ash ( æ ): thus, long æ is represented by the digraph aé * where a diphthong (e.g. ea ) is to be pronounced as two syllables, a umlaut ( .. ) is placed over the second vowel: thus eö is disyllabic. * where a monothongic vowel is to be 'expanded' to a disyllable (in order to fit the metre), a umlaut ( .. ) is placed over the vowel: thus ö is disyllabic. * all other diacritics as per standard usage [Many thanks to Dr. Elizabeth Pyatt for assistance in arriving at a clear and unambiguous diacritic notation] |

* NO PUNCTUATION WHERE THE
SENSE IS CLEAR WITHOUT ANY
* the paragraph inset (indentation), to mark major changes of theme or argument * the full-stop point (.), to indicate the end of a 'verse paragraph' or of a major sense unit or major shift in narrative * the Georgian comma, or middle dot, (·), to mark off clauses -- indicating a less definite pause which may vary between a modern comma and a full stop, also employed in cases of various ambiguity in the text * the colon (:), to introduce speeches, and in some other places where the colon is employed in modern punctuation * the comma (,), to be used only within clauses and then only when it is needed to clarify the sense * the 'enclosing' strokes (- -), to mark off parenthetic clauses * the question mark (?), to mark interrogatives * the exclamation mark (!), to be used to mark exclamations and wishes * inverted commas (' '), to be used to mark quotations, direct speech; double inverted commas (" ") where required |
