This type of element is often referred to generically as a character style, where the larger containing text units are often referred to as paragraph styles. In the case of a text markup scheme like USFM, the term “style” is somewhat misleading, in that the essential goal of USFM it to mark common scriptural element types, and not formatting information. Bearing that in mind, USFM has also inherited and attempted to unify a long history of SFM type scripture markup “standards”, some of which were more or less strict in their tolerance for format-oriented markers. We have not wished to create an unworkable migration task for legacy SFM encoded texts. Translation editing software which implement support for USFM encoded text may provide a formatted view of the text using a set of style definitions for each USFM marker. These “stylesheets” most often refer to the formatting definitions as paragraph and character styles. .. note:: **About nesting character level markup in USFM (>2.4):** USFM 2.4 adds a new syntax for indicating that a nesting of one character level marker within another is taking place within a text. See :doc:`Character Marker Nesting ` for details. ----- Special Text ------------ .. _usfmc_add: .. index:: marker; \add ...\add*, special text; translator's addition \\add ...\\add\* ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ :Syntax: ``\add_text...\add*`` :Type: character :Added: 1.0 :Use: Translator's addition. |br| A translator's explanation; words added by the translator for clarity – text which is not literally a part of the original language, but which was supplied to make the meaning of the original clear. **Text and Formatting Sample** - Genesis 5.29 (Russian Synodal, Protestant Version) .. code-block:: text :name: usfm-character_add_example :emphasize-lines: 3 \p \v 29 И нарек ему имя: Ной, сказав: он утешит нас в работе нашей и в трудах рук наших при \add возделывании\add* земли, которую проклял Господь. .. image:: images/usfm-character_add.jpg :width: 250px ----- .. _usfmc_bk: .. index:: marker; \bk ...\bk*, special text; quoted book title \\bk ...\\bk\* ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ :Syntax: ``\bk_text...\bk*`` :Type: character :Added: 1.0 :Use: Quoted book title. **Text and Formatting Sample** - Introduction to Mark (GNT) .. code-block:: text :name: usfm-character_bk_example :emphasize-lines: 4-5 \mt1 THE ACTS \mt2 of the Apostles \is Introduction \ip \bk The Acts of the Apostles\bk* is a continuation of \bk The Gospel according to Luke\bk* Its chief purpose is to tell how Jesus' early followers, led by the Holy Spirit, spread the Good News about him “in Jerusalem, in all of Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth” (1.8). .. image:: images/usfm-character_bk.jpg :width: 250px ----- .. _usfmc_dc: .. index:: marker; \dc ...\dc*, special text; DC only additions \\dc ...\\dc\* ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ :Syntax: ``\dc_text...\dc*`` :Type: character :Added: 1.0 :Use: Deuterocanonical/LXX additions or insertions in the Protocanonical text. |br| General purpose use of ``\dc ...\dc*`` or :doc:`nested ` ``\+dc ...\+dc*`` is encouraged wherever DC-only content is being marked.

The use of marker attributes, and the use of a vertical bar as an attribute separator was unique to illustration markup in USFM 1.x and 2.x.

In Japanese these are called Kanji (literally “Han characters”). There are several thousand of these characters to learn. For new readers or readers new to the Biblical texts it may be very difficult for them to recognize what Chinese or Japanese word corresponds to the Han character(s) they are seeing. **Ruby glosses:** In order to help these readers, some Bibles are printed with glosses using small phonetic characters (e.g. Japanese uses the hiragana alphabet) placed above the more symbolic Han characters to tell the reader how to pronounce the character. These phonetic characters are generically called "ruby glosses" or "rubies".
