Description:
Menota is based on the scheme defined by the Text Encoding Initiative. It defines further extensions based primarily on two major differences between Medieval Nordic texts and most other comparable corpora:
- A large degree of orthographical variation.
- A large degree of abbreviation of letters, groups of letters, words and so on.
For more on how to use, see the Menota handbook and the description of the schemas.
