Template:Interlinear translation/doc

This template is for word-by-word interlinear translations, with each word above an English translation.

Usage
For each pair of a non-English word and its English translation, use:

You may also need to use clear after the translation, to make sure that any subsequent text is beneath it.

Blackletter
If you want the entire non-English word to be rendered in a blackletter font, set the bl parameter to 1: If you only want part of the non-English word to be rendered in a blackletter font (for example, if you want footnotes or punctuation to be non-blackletter), then do not use the bl parameter, and instead wrap the parts of the non-English word you do want to be blackletter in the bl template.

Extract translation
In cases where you want to extract the translation separately from the interlinear translation, you can add a part of the title of the page where you will transclude the extracted translation, which does not occur in the Page: namespace title or the interlinear translation page title, as the fourth parameter: In cases where the text you want to extract is different from the English translation (for example, different formatting, footnotes, etc.), you can add this as the fifth parameter:

Example

 * Page namespace title: Page:Example interlinear book/1
 * Mainspace interlinear transclusion title: Example interlinear book/Example translation
 * Mainspace extracted translation title: Example translation (author/translator)
