Interlinear morpheme-by-morpheme glosses are common in linguistic texts to give
|
||||||
|
information about the meanings of individual words and morphemes in the
|
||||||
|
language being studied. A set of conventions called the *Leipzig Glossing Rules*
|
||||||
|
was developed to give linguists a general set of standards and principles for
|
||||||
|
how to format these glosses. The most recent version of these rules can be
|
||||||
|
found in pdf form at
|
||||||

|
||||||
|
Evolutionary Anthropology.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
There is a staggering variety of LaTex packages designed to properly align and
|
||||||
|
format glosses (including `gb4e`, `ling-macros`, `linguex`, `expex`, and
|
||||||
|
probably even more). These modules vary in the complexity of their syntax and
|
||||||
|
the amount of control they give to the user of various aspects of formatting.
|
||||||
|
The `typst-leipzig-glossing` module is designed to provide utilities for
|
||||||
|
creating aligned Leipzig-style glosses in Typst, while keeping the syntax as
|
||||||
|
intuitive as possible and allowing users as much control over how their glosses
|
||||||
|
look as is feasible.
|
||||||

||||||

This pdf will show examples of the module's functionality and detail relevant
|
||||||
|
parameters. For more information or to inform devs of a bug or other issue,
