How Nine-Final Token Resolver works
Resolve the 9-shaped word-final brevigraph by appending your chosen attested reading of the mark, '-us' (broad) or '-is', to the letters of the stem. The tool evaluates the supplied inputs together and returns the named outputs below; it does not infer omitted operating conditions or change the units shown.1
- Resolved token
- Resolved full token.
- Applied final
- Final reading actually applied.
Limitations and assumptions
- Script and manuscript evidence varies by language, region, institution, period, scribe, material, restoration, and cataloguing convention. A heuristic flag or score is not an authoritative date, hand attribution, reading, provenance, or conservation diagnosis.
- Use finite inputs in the displayed units and preserve more precision than the final presentation requires. Independently verify safety-critical, financial, compliance, or production decisions.
Alternative or Complementary approaches
Retain page images, scale, foliation, material, provenance, diplomatic transcription, uncertainty, and comparison exemplars; confirm conclusions with codicological context and specialist judgment.

- P-Loop Brevigraph Expander
Expand the barred/looped -p- brevigraph by joining surrounding letters with your chosen attested reading of the sign, 'per' or 'par' (the sign itself is ambiguous; the sense is a declared enum choice).
- Coptic Module Ratio Classifier
Divide measured letter height by measured pen-nib width for a Coptic hand and classify the module as fine, medium or broad using YOUR supplied thresholds (required inputs, since no single scholarly convention is universal).
- Capitalization Randomness Index
Measure how liberally a manuscript sample capitalizes word initials: the exact fraction of whitespace tokens beginning with an uppercase letter (a rate near one reflects the medieval habit of decorating most words) plus the number of distinct capitalized initial letters.
