Overview

The work in this repository involves XML-tagging the relevant words (with their respective languages and German gloss) in the unstructured OCR output. The tagging is used to processed the OCR into a tibble/table with an R scripts. The comparative word list in von Rosenberg (1878) includes words from the Enggano language and they are included in the Shiny app of the EnoLEX online database (Krauße et al. 2024; Rajeg, Krauße & Pramartha 2024).

The column OldFormOrig in the table contains the original form/spelling in the source text while the OldFormChange contains the changes made (e.g., typo correction, adjustment, OCR error fixing) on the original form/spelling.

The English and Indonesian columns are translations in the two languages of the original German glosses of the forms. The translation was performed using the DeepL web translator.

The grouping of the individual language (captured in this code line) into its larger group is based on the mapping here; in that mapping page, the Kei-Inslen appears not to be linked to a group but, based on the description here (cf. from the third sentence of the first paragraph, of the sub-section titled Geographische Uebersicht), it is closer to the Südoster-Inseln.
