Usage

This template generates a reference to the LSJ (Liddell-Scott-Jones) at the Perseus Project using Module:R:Perseus.

In most cases, the URL can be automatically determined from the page title, and no parameters are needed. Perseus uses codes to refer to LSJ entries. In many cases, the code is a simple conversion of the page title to Beta Code: for example, λόγος → lo/gos. Thus, on the page λόγος, the module can automatically determine the code: {{R:LSJ}}.

Sometimes the code contains a digit for disambiguation, when there are two words that have the same spelling when diacritics are removed. Sometimes the code is otherwise bizarrely unpredictable, as with δηλητήρ (dēlētḗr) (see at the bottom). In these cases, place the code in the first parameter. A second parameter for the link text is not needed if the displayed text is identical to the page name. For instance, {{R:LSJ|lao/s1}} in the entry for λαός (laós).

Sometimes the page title is not the same as the LSJ entry name. This is true, for example, when the LSJ is cited in an English entry (for instance, sapphire), or when the LSJ describes a word in the entry for another word (for instance, the noun δοτική (dotikḗ) is defined in the LSJ entry for its parent adjective δοτικός (dotikós)). If the Perseus code is a simple conversion of the page title to Beta Code, place the Greek in the first parameter: {{R:LSJ|σάπφειρος}}, {{R:LSJ|δοτικός}}. Else, put the Greek in the second parameter and the code in the first: {{R:LSJ|lao/s1|λαός}}.

Beta code

Breathing marks and accents are represented with punctuation marks. They generally follow the letter they modify:

• Rough breathing mark is (
• Smooth breathing mark is )
• Acute accent is /
• Circumflex is %3D (standing in for =)
• Iota subscript is %7C (standing in for |)
• Diaeresis is +

Capital letters are marked with an asterisk (*) and a lowercase letter. Sometimes a rough breathing or smooth breathing or accent will come between the asterisk and the lowercase letter: Ἕλλην → *(/ellhn.

Examples

• {{R:LSJ|i)w%3Dta}}, {{R:LSJ|i)w{{=}}ta}}, {{R:LSJ|1=i)w=ta}} - ἰῶτα - the Perseus code is i)w=ta, but an equals sign = must be prevented from being interpreted as template syntax by percent-encoding, using a template, or by using an explicitly numbered parameter
• {{R:LSJ|a)karh/s}} - ἀκαρής
• {{R:LSJ|parw%7Cdi/a}}, {{R:LSJ|parw{{!}}di/a}} - παρῳδία - the Perseus code is parw|di/a, but a pipe | must be prevented from being interpreted as template syntax by percent-encoding or by using a template
• {{R:LSJ|farmakei/a1}} - φαρμακεία - note the 1 added to the end, as LSJ also has an entry for φαρμάκεια, which is identical to φαρμακεία when diacritics are removed
• {{R:LSJ|D.H.lhth/r}} - δηλητήρ - the string D.H.lhth/r had to be found by browsing the dictionary.
