This module is a data module providing a catalogue of passages from one particular book or article for each passage to demonstrate the existence of multiple Pali words. The modules returns a 3-D array (technically a Lua table), indexed as follows:
norm), literal translation (item lit), and normalisation of the transliteration (item ts) to bring it into line with Roman script Pali. The changed text is delimited by ⧁⧀ pairs so that it may be flexibly highlighted, and the effects should cascade from normalisation to transliteration to normalised transliteration.The table has one named element, "reference", that holds the name of the template (namely, {{RQ:pi:Shan Paritta}}) used to identify the source to the reader and format the quote, its transliteration and its translation.
The intention is that the word will be highlighted when selected by these three indices. Words are assigned positive numbers and their boundaries are marked up in the form {number-word}. This mark up can be nested, so that words may contain other words. Different sections may have the same number; this allows for repeated words, overlapping words, and discontiguous translations.
The words are transcluded into a page using an invocation of the form {{RQ:pi:Shan Paritta quote|15|idampi|3}}; this example produces the text:
There is no advantage in including a passage for the sake of one word; one can use {{RQ:pi:Shan Paritta}} directly for that purpose.
