ਫਰਮਾ:Greek/doc

This template uses the lang HTML attribute to identify the text's language as Ancient Greek (grc).

Note: This template is used for Ancient Greek text. Modern Greek should use {{Modern Greek}} (or {{el}}) to set the correct language code (el).

Usage

Example

* {{Greek|Ἰητρικὴ τεχνέων μὲν πασέων ἐστὶν ἐπιφανεστάτη - β ϐ φ ϕ θ ϑ ρ ϱ κ ϰ ε ϵ ψ}}

Multiple paragraphs

For multiple paragraphs, either use {{Greek block}}, or {{Greek block/s}} and {{Greek block/e}}.

Wiktionary linking

You can optionally link to the Ancient Greek section of a Wikitionary entry with parameter 2:

• {{Greek|λύω|λύω}} →

This should be done sparingly and in accordance with annotations guidelines.

Customisation

If you wish to use a particular font for Ancient Greek, you can add CSS like the following to your CSS:

[lang=grc] {
    font-family: Gentium, 'Linux Libertine', 'Palatino Linotype';
}

Italics

The upright capital alpha indicates that the Greek is not italicised

Note that while many fonts may appear similar to italic Latin glyphs, Greek is generally not italicised. If in doubt, check capital letters: if they are upright, the text is not italic, it's just in a font that has slightly slanted lowercase letters.

TemplateData

Denote text as Ancient Greek. Always use this for Ancient Greek (do not use no template), and use {{Modern Greek}} for Modern Greek.
