   TEI vs. TEI Lite

[ Lists Home | Date Index | Thread Index ]

Hello.

I was using TEI Lite to encode and annotate a foreign literary work in
xml, but I am now encountering its limitations.  Namely, in my
annotation, I need to provide a fair deal of grammatical and
etymological information about certain words and phrases from the text
using tags that are actually only to be found in TEI.dictionaries.

So I was thinking I should forget about TEI Lite and switch to TEI
altogether, but there I'm encountering another problem since I am not
really creating a dictionary, but want to put dictionary entries inside
<notes> which are themselves inside paragraphs... According to the
TEI.dictionary dtd, however, the <entry> element can be found only
within main body elements such as div0, div1 etc...  (which makes
perfect sense for a dictionary)...

So what are my options at this point?  How should I proceed?  Can I
keep the cake and eat it too?

All best,
Toma
