Signs Added in Correction Seen by Earlier Editors

Signs added in an ancient correction that were seen and recorded by earlier editors, but are no longer visible on the support.

Syntax

The notation representing the deleted text followed by an equal sign and a greater-than sign forming a => arrow, then by any notation of a phenomenon (IbiUnit) allowed within PreviousSeen, all enclosed between plus signs +…+. Optional metadata can be written before the final + delimiter.

  • 𝘏 = identifier sign of the hand (if specified in the optional annotations/metadata ¤ᵟ).
  • ⊙ ∈ PREVIOUS_SEEN_ALLOWED = any phenomena allowed within PreviousSeen (notation, AST or rendering depending on its placement).
  • ‽ᵟ ∈ {?, !, ε} = uncertainty marker ?, certainty marker !, or empty string (ε).
  • γ ∈ {Low, High, Medium} = certainty level corresponding to the marker used in the notation.
  • ◇ᵟ ∈ {⯑, ⯁, ε} = rendering of the uncertainty/certainty marker in the notation or empty string (ε).
  • ¤ᵟ = optional annotations (metadata) supported by Correction (cf. Ancient Corrections).

See Ancient Corrections for the automatic rectification performed by the formatter to improve legibility.
