Missing ligatures
I have posted a message about the missing ligatures to the Sword Dev mailing list. David Haslam 14:20, 19 July 2008 (MDT)
- This has just been fixed by Chris Little, so I have removed the following lines from the main page.
- In this module, all French words that should contain the ligature "œ" have this codepoint (U+0153) missing.
- Examples: in the words cœur ("heart"), sœur ("sister"), œuf ("egg"), œuvre ("work") and œil ("eye").
- The first examples of such an omission are in Genesis 2:2-3
- 2 Et Dieu acheva au septième jour toute l'uvre qu'il avait faite. Et il cessa au septième jour de travailler à toute l'uvre qu'il avait faite.
- 3 Et Dieu bénit le septième jour et le sanctifia, parce qu'en ce jour-là il avait cessé de travailler à toute l'uvre qu'il avait créée pour la faire.
- The word l'œuvre occurs three times, but displays as l'uvre.
- This is probably due to an scripting error in converting the text from La Bible Annotée. I have checked the source text on the Soleil d'Orient website, and confirmed that the ligatures are there in the original HTML files.
