Updated glosses in Gloss-ViBe

The following list provides information on those instances in which gloss readings, translations, and analyses were updated in contrast to previous editions. Since there is previous edition of all the Latin glosses, the list only features Old Irish examples. The previous readings are cited from: 1) Stifter et. al. (2021) = CorPH, and 2) Stokes and Strachan (1901-1903) = Thes.

  8. BVi.04a23b.44: .i. imbí

    With the help of the parallel gloss in Ang. 57b26d, it was possible to update the analysis/translation of this gloss (cf. Bauer forthc.).

    Thes.ii.35.4a1.44: 'in which it is'

  9. BVi.04b23.55: .i. teora bliadni frithriagla

    Following Bauer (2017, 39) more of the gloss can be read with the help of UV-light and the parallel gloss in BCr. 32b16.
    UpdatedPrevious
    .i. teora bliadni firthriaglaS0058-60: bliadni
    Thes.ii.35.4a2.55: ......bliadni........

  10. BVi.04c11.61: la … tum for ix

    The gloss is very hard to decipher and the part before the "tum/gum" has to remain unclear. Nonetheless, I think we should rather read "tum" than "gum".
    UpdatedPrevious
    tumS0058-66: gum
    Thes.ii.36.4b1.61: gum

  11. BVi.04c33.69: .i. biith doith forlaim
