Template for the table:
| Gloss | Sereer | Gloss | Sereer |
|---|---|---|---|
| I ... | -aam | we ... | i[mut]- -a |
| you ... | -aa | you (pl) ... | nu[mut]- -a |
| s/he ... | -a | they ... | a[mut]- -a |
To highlight individual cells in a paradigm, mimic the code here. For instance, let's say we want to highlight the fact that plural verb stems undergo consonant mutation, and we like blue. We paste the code style="background: blue; color: white" | (note the stem at the end) into the beginning of the cell:
| Gloss | Sereer | Gloss | Sereer |
|---|---|---|---|
| I ... | -aam | we ... | i[mut]- -a |
| you ... | -aa | you (pl) ... | nu[mut]- -a |
| s/he ... | -a | they ... | a[mut]- -a |
Interlinear Glosses
Documentation for the glossing package is here:
http://wiki.migmaq.org/index.php?title=Wiki_gloss_extension
The template for interlinear glossing is below:
<gl id="ex1" fontsize=12> mexe waʄnaa foofi \gll me-xe waʄ-n-aa foofi 1s-COP boil-CAUS-PROG water \trans I am boiling water. (045) </gl>
The example below lacks an unparsed first line. Note that the position of \gll determines which line starts aligned glossing. \trans effectively ends this command.
<gl id="ex2" fontsize=12> \gll me- xe waʄ -na foofi' 1SG CONT boil CAUS water \trans I am boiling water. (045) </gl>
Now you can refer to example <glr id="ex1"/> like this. This creates a hyperlink!
(The method below should be avoided for the method above.)
To make an interlinear gloss, the code below is a start.
| Unparsed content Unparsed content Unparsed content Unparsed content Unparsed content |
| Morph 1 | Morph 2 | Morph 3 | Morph 4 | Morph 5 |
| Gloss 1 | Gloss 2 | Gloss 3 | Gloss 4 | Gloss 5 |

An example of usage:
| mexe waʄna foofi'. |
| me- | xe | waʄ | -na | foofi' |
| 1SG | CONT | boil | CAUS | water |
I am boiling water. (045)
