Description
Return a translated footnote's literal parent/language metadata.
Comparative-literature annotations connect editions, passages, speakers, structural frames and count units. Literal keys and normalized lengths can support consistent records while textual meaning, translation fidelity and bibliographic authority remain matters for source-aware editorial analysis.
Return a translated footnote's literal parent/language metadata.
When to use this tool
Use Translated Footnote Parent Token when checking a supplied literary annotation, cross-edition offset or count convention.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter noteId, parentId, expectedParent, sourceLanguage, targetLanguage. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read linked, sameLanguage, key. Inspect linked, sameLanguage before interpreting the associated values.
Return a translated footnote's literal parent/language metadata. Require nonempty noteId/parentId; linked compares expectedParent, sameLanguage compares labels, key serializes parentId/noteId/targetLanguage.1

"input": {
"noteId": "n2",
"parentId": "n1",
"expectedParent": "n1",
"sourceLanguage": "fr",
"targetLanguage": "en"
},
"output": {
"linked": true,

}
}Limitations and assumptions
- No note, language, actual link target or translation is resolved or verified.
- 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
Inspect the source editions and their annotation/counting policy for substantive literary, translation or provenance conclusions.
