Table Lemma List - warwickfoster/qurantools GitHub Wiki
The lemma-list table contains base forms of words (lemmas) found in the Qur'an. It acts as a lexical reference for scholars analyzing word usage, morphology, and semantics in the text.
Analysis of the lemma-list Table
Below is the detailed analysis of the lemma-list table, with unique descriptions for each field.
| Table Name | Field Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
lemma-list |
LEMMA ID |
A unique identifier for each lemma entry, serving as the primary key for the table. |
lemma-list |
ENGLISH |
The English transliteration of the lemma, providing a readable representation for non-Arabic speakers. |
lemma-list |
ENGLISH-BINARY |
A binary-encoded representation of the English transliteration, primarily for computational purposes. |
lemma-list |
ARABIC |
The lemma in Arabic script, capturing its original orthographic representation. |
lemma-list |
ARABIC ALTERNATE RENDERING |
An alternative rendering of the Arabic lemma, reflecting variations or orthographic differences. |
lemma-list |
ROOT |
The linguistic root associated with the lemma, linking it to its morphological base. |
lemma-list |
ROOT-BINARY |
A binary-encoded representation of the root for computational analysis. |
lemma-list |
COUNT |
The total number of occurrences of the lemma in the Qur'an. |
lemma-list |
COUNT MECCAN |
The number of times the lemma appears in Meccan chapters. |
lemma-list |
COUNT MEDINAN |
The number of times the lemma appears in Medinan chapters. |
lemma-list |
ENGLISH TRANSLITERATED |
A phonetic representation of the lemma in Roman script, aiding in pronunciation for non-Arabic speakers. |
lemma-list |
100-COUNT-ALL |
The normalized frequency of the lemma per 100 words across the entire Qur'an. |
lemma-list |
100-COUNT-MECCAN |
The normalized frequency of the lemma per 100 words in Meccan chapters. |
lemma-list |
100-COUNT-MEDINAN |
The normalized frequency of the lemma per 100 words in Medinan chapters. |
lemma-list |
GLOSS |
A concise English explanation or meaning of the lemma, providing its semantic context. |
lemma-list |
PROPER NOUN |
A flag indicating whether the lemma is a proper noun (e.g., a name or place). |
lemma-list |
CORRECTED TRANSLITERATION |
A corrected transliteration of the lemma if adjustments were necessary for accuracy or consistency. |
lemma-list |
ALTERNATIVE TRANSLITERATION |
An alternative transliteration of the lemma, reflecting regional or scholarly differences. |
lemma-list |
LEMMA FIX NOT NEEDED |
A flag indicating whether the lemma required no corrections during data processing. |
lemma-list |
LEMMA FIXED BY USER |
A flag showing whether the lemma's transliteration or other attributes were corrected manually by a user. |
lemma-list |
AJ FOREIGN PAGE |
A reference to additional external sources or pages where the lemma may be further described, such as in lexicons or concordances. |
Key Insights
-
Linguistic Focus:
- The table connects lemmas to their roots (
ROOT) and provides phonetic, orthographic, and semantic details for in-depth linguistic analysis. - Frequency fields (
COUNT,100-COUNT-ALL, etc.) enable statistical studies of lemma distribution in the Qur'an.
- The table connects lemmas to their roots (
-
Applications:
- Supports linguistic studies by linking lemmas to their roots and providing contextual meanings.
- Facilitates translation work with accurate glosses and transliterations.
-
Error Tracking:
- The
CORRECTED TRANSLITERATION,LEMMA FIX NOT NEEDED, andLEMMA FIXED BY USERfields ensure data accuracy and transparency in lemma processing.
