David, I’m not sure that the filter is only used for display. I think it may also be used for search. In Ancient Greek, we don’t want to have to include U+2019 as part of the search request, but just the letters. As a reader of NT Greek, it doesn’t bother me to have δ αρχαια rather than δ’ αρχα

My argument is simple & straightforward. When you hide diacritics, you ought not to be hiding punctuation marks. Why is this so contentious? In what world does how a module displays require that punctuation be hidden? A quotation mark is not an accent! David On Mon, Mar 17, 2025 at 21:06, DM

Dear SWORD developers, I asked about this topic several years ago, and I'm no longer convinced by what we were told back then. After doing further research, it's my understanding that U+2019 RIGHT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK ought not to be hidden by this SWORD filter. - This codepoint is not a dia

The intent was to show the full word and only indicate that it was originally shown in nomina sacra. Thus, if there is a way, it would be better to show the whole word and merely note that it was nomina sacra in some attribute. There are are sometimes more than one form of nomina sacra abbrevia

Hi DM, One impact is on the StatResGNT module, in which both single and double left/right quotation marks have been added by the project leader. Hiding Greek Accents has the bad effect of losing the end quotation mark for all the level 2 quotations in the text. NB. It was seeing this project tha

This search result is exactly what I’d expect with the current code as it has been described and shows that the filter is being used. The search request is normalized to remove all the accents and also the U+2019. The text is normalized in the same fashion. So it works with or without U+2019. I
