What is it?
The <l>
element indicates a verse line, and is therefore only used in the transcription of poetry. A stanza is encoded as a line group (<lg>
) containing a number of lines (<l>
). For our purposes, the <l>
element is the poetry equivalent of the <seg>
element in prose. As a result, <l>
's @n
and @type
attributes are used in the same way as they are in the <seg>
element.
