Digitized editions – A new era
Friedberg’s “Hachi Garsinan” project fully uses the advantages of the digitized
edition:
 For the first time, we can offer various sorts of editions
 No lack of space
 Maximum flexibility

Textual
variations on
Vilna page
12
Menachem Katz
How can we display only “major” variations?
 If we present all of the variations, the significant data will be hard to notice
within the noise.
 If we present only what we think is “major”, we could miss variations that the
user think is indeed major.
 The difference between the types of users make the mission even harder.
13
Menachem Katz
How detailed should it be? Two different approaches
Sifre Bemidbar, KahanaMishna Ketubbot, Brody
14
Menachem Katz
The mission: Teaching the computer to single out the
“major” variations
Bavli Ta’anit, 30a
15
Menachem Katz
Taking the opposite direction: singling out the “minor”
variations instead
 The computer cannot know which of the variations is major.
 We can teach it what variation is probably minor.
16
Menachem Katz

Textual equivalencies
17
Menachem Katz
Categories of Equivalency – Group A
 Abbreviations and their full versions [‫אמ‬'–‫אמר‬]
 Acronyms and their full versions [‫אע‬"‫פ‬–‫פי‬ ‫על‬ ‫אף‬]
 Variations in the way numbers are written [‫ג‬'–‫שלוש‬]
 Vocalizing vowels and their omission [‫קבל‬–‫קיבל‬]
 The way of writing G-d's name [‫ה‬'–‫ייי‬]
 Partial textual fault (tear or blurring) [‫בר‬...‫ת‬–‫בראשית‬]
 Words joined together [‫עולם‬ ‫של‬–‫שלעולם‬]
 Graphic variants [‫כעכין‬–‫כעבין‬]
 Phonetic variants [‫כעור‬–‫כאור‬]
18
Menachem Katz
Categories of Equivalency – Group B
 Linguistic variants [‫עומדין‬–‫עומדים‬]
 Letters that signify prepositions and their omission [‫לשם‬–‫שם‬]
 Semantic variants [‫גוי‬–‫נכרי‬]
 Variations in personal names [‫לקיש‬ ‫ריש‬–‫ר‬'‫לקיש‬ ‫בן‬ ‫שמעון‬]
 Variations in place names [ ‫אלכסנדריה‬-‫אלסכנדריה‬ ]
 Shortening or lengthening ofVerses (Psukim)
19
Menachem Katz
Now we can emphasize the major changes
20
Menachem Katz
…And also emphasize what other people would think
is minor, but we think is the real deal
21
Menachem Katz
What’s next?
 Searching not only for words, but also for variations?
 Searching for frequent non-equivalent variations?
