Optimizing Dictionary Representation in TEI Using ODD: A Modular Specification Approach

Explore how ODD (One Document Does it All) enhances the representation of dictionaries in TEI (Text Encoding Initiative) through streamlined specifications. Learn about the modular architecture that groups related elements and classes in a coherent format, simplifying the design of TEI P5 editions. With a focus on user engagement and efficient schema declarations, this platform facilitates creating rich, well-structured dictionary entries, ensuring semantic clarity and ease of use for editors and researchers alike.

  1. Specifications and extensions in ODD The case of dictionaries Laurent Romary, Loria-CNRS

  2. The new power of ODD • ODD: One Document Does it all • A powerful, yet easy to learn, specification platform • Facilitates the design of the TEI P5 edition • Provides means for the user to be part of the game • Nicer modular view • Class system • Extension mechanisms

  3. Representing dictionaries in the TEI <entry> <form> <orth>OATS</orth> </form> <gramGrp> <pos>n.</pos> <number>s.</number> </gramGrp> <etym>[aten, Sax.]</etym> <def>A grain, which in England is generally given to horses; but in Scotland supports the people.</def> </form> </entry>

  4. Declaring a schema in ODD <TEI xmlns="http://www.tei-c.org/ns/1.0"> <teiHeader>…</teiHeader> <text> <body> <schemaSpec ident="myTEISchema"> <moduleRef key="header"/> <moduleRef key="core"/> <moduleRef key="tei"/> <moduleRef key="textstructure"/> <moduleRef key="dictionaries"/> </schemaSpec> </body> </text> </TEI>

  5. Using Roma

  6. Classes in ODD • Groups together all elements with the same role in the TEI architecture • Same syntactic behaviour • The elements in the class will appear in the same content models • Semantic similarity • The class defines a group of elements belonging to the same family of concepts • Principle: • elements declare themselves as belonging to a class

  7. Example: tei.gramInfo • Grammatical information in a dictionary entry • E.g.: <entry> <form> <orth>luire</orth> </form> <gramGrp> <pos>verb</pos> <subc>intransitive</subc> </gramGrp> </entry> • Rather homogeneous set of elements • <pos>, <gen>, <number>, <case>, etc. • May also appear in <form>

  8. Overall picture <gramGrp> tei.gramInfo <pos>

  9. Declaring the class: tei.gramInfo <classSpec xmlns="http://www.tei-c.org/ns/1.0" module="dictionaries-decl" id="GRAMINFO" type="model" ident="tei.gramInfo"> <gloss>grammatical information</gloss> <desc>groups those elements allowed within a <gi>gramGrp</gi> element in a dictionary.</desc> </classSpec>

  10. <pos> belongs to tei.gramInfo <elementSpec module="dictionaries" id="POS" ident="pos"> <gloss>part of speech</gloss> <desc>indicates the part of speech assigned to a dictionary headword (noun, verb, adjective, etc.)</desc> <classes> <memberOf key="tei.dictionaryParts"/> <memberOf key="tei.gramInfo"/> <memberOf key="tei.dictionaries"/> </classes> <content> … </content> <exemplum> … </exemplum> </elementSpec>

  11. Content model for <gramGrp> <elementSpec module="dictionaries" id="GRAMGRP" ident="gramGrp"> <gloss>grammatical information group</gloss> <content> <rng:zeroOrMore xmlns:rng="http://relaxng.org/ns/structure/1.0"> <rng:choice> <rng:text/> <rng:ref name="tei.phrase"/> <rng:ref name="tei.inter"/> <rng:ref name="tei.gramInfo"/> <rng:ref name="tei.Incl"/> </rng:choice> </rng:zeroOrMore> </content> … </elementSpec>

  12. Constraining the values of <gen> • Basic content model for <gen> • Cf. gen.odd <content> <rng:ref xmlns:rng="http://relaxng.org/ns/structure/1.0" name="macro.paraContent"/> </content> • Changing the content model • Account for the local editorial practices <gen>m</gen>

  13. Some constraints on <gen>, <elementSpec xmlns="http://www.tei-c.org/ns/1.0” ident="gen” mode="change"> <content> <valList> <valItem ident="m"/> <valItem ident="f"/> </valList> </content> </elementSpec>

  14. Put into the schema declaration, <TEI xmlns="http://www.tei-c.org/ns/1.0"> <teiHeader>…</teiHeader> <text> <body> <schemaSpec ident="myTEISchema"> <moduleRef key="header"/> <moduleRef key="core"/> <moduleRef key="tei"/> <moduleRef key="textstructure"/> <moduleRef key="dictionaries"/> <elementSpec>…</elementSpec> </schemaSpec> </body> </text> </TEI>

  15. allows you to validate this… <entry> <form> <orth>pamplemousse</orth> </form> <gramGrp> <pos>noun</pos> <gen>m</gen> </gramGrp> </entry>
