Formatting utilities

Tabulae includes utilities for formatting traditional paradigms in Markdown.

You can create paradigms from a lexeme and a Tabulae data set.

Note

The current version of Tabulae does not yet support generating paradigms from a lexeme + a parser, but that option is planned for a subsequent release.

With a variable repo, we create a Tabulae dataset from sources in the project github repository’s datasets directory.

using Tabulae, CitableParserBuilder

shareddir = joinpath(repo, "datasets", "core-infl-shared") 
lat25dir = joinpath(repo, "datasets", "core-infl-lat25") 
ds = dataset([shareddir, lat25dir])

Noun declensions

Displaying Markdown

All the formatting functions documented here return strings of Markdown text. The code snippets use the Markdown.parse method to return a Markdown.MD object that quarto documentation formats appropriately. This works in other contexts such as Pluto notebooks and the Julia REPL.

Format a paradigm for a single noun:

using Markdown
animus = LexemeUrn("ls.n2636")
md_declension(animus, ds) |> Markdown.parse

	Singular	Plural
nominative	animus	animi
genitive	animi	animorum
dative	animo	animis
accusative	animum	animos
ablative	animo	animis
vocative	anime	animi

Format a paradigm for a list of nouns; optionally, include a list of headings to use for the column for each noun.

agricola = LexemeUrn("ls.n1626")
md_declension([agricola, animus], ds; headings = ["1st decl.", "2nd decl."]) |> Markdown.parse

	1st decl.	2nd decl.
singular
nominative	agricola	animus
genitive	agricolae	animi
dative	agricolae	animo
accusative	agricolam	animum
ablative	agricola	animo
vocative	agricola	anime
plural
nominative	agricolae	animi
genitive	agricolarum	animorum
dative	agricolis	animis
accusative	agricolas	animos
ablative	agricolis	animis
vocative	agricolae	animi

Verb conjugations

Format a verb paradigm in the indicative and subjunctive of a single tense for both active and passive voices.

impft = lmpTense("imperfect")
