Description
Preserve an explicit commentary placement annotation.
Source records can preserve supplied scripts, translations, edition labels, leaf sides and historical date wording. Displaying two strings together does not establish equivalent readings, and preserving a numeral or reign-year label differs from converting a calendar. Source context is essential to interpretation.
Preserve an explicit commentary placement annotation.
When to use this tool
Use Chinese Commentary Interlinear Marker when you already have sourceId, suppliedTextSpan, commentaryMarker and need to preserve an explicit commentary placement annotation.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter sourceId, suppliedTextSpan, commentaryMarker. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read token. Use the output convention below.
Enter sourceId, suppliedTextSpan, commentaryMarker using the field constraints below. Encode these values, in exactly that order, as a JSON array and return the serialized array as text in token. String values are preserved without trimming or external terminology lookup.1
| Input field | Meaning and units | Accepted input |
|---|---|---|
| sourceId | Source Id | Required. Text; minimum UTF-16 length 1; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |
| suppliedTextSpan | Supplied Text Span | Required. Text; minimum UTF-16 length 1; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |
| commentaryMarker | Commentary Marker | Required. Text; minimum UTF-16 length 1; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |
| Output field | Interpretation | Returned shape |
|---|---|---|
| token | Token | Required. Text; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |

"input": {
"sourceId": "SRC17",
"suppliedTextSpan": "Text A",
"commentaryMarker": "interlinear"
},
"output": {
"token": "[\"SRC17\",\"Text A\",\"interlinear\"]"
}
}Limitations and assumptions
- The result records supplied values without inferring textual layers. Sources and asserted relationships are not independently authenticated.
- Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Consult original manuscripts, publications, catalogues and language or calendar authorities. Preserve uncertain readings and supplied source conventions when local labels cannot establish historical meaning, equivalence or chronology.
