Style Guide

See below for general information on translation and formatting practices. This can be used as a guideline in future translations.

Though the original text does not have paragraphs, the English text was split into paragraphs for ease of understanding the content.
The original text has circles to denote subsections. These have been kept in the English text.
Any words added to the text by the translator to aid in the reader's understanding have been added inside parenthesis.
The original text had commentary added in small characters. This is denoted in the English text with a smaller, grey colored font.
Key terms have been bolded.
Editor's notes have been added via footnotes.
Translations follow the sentence structure of the original text as much as possible.
To see how a particular term was translated, check the glossary.
Farming tools were kept as romanizations as they vary slightly from similar tools available in other countries.
Calendar terms were changed to English whenever possible but editor's notes were added to clarify when necessary. More information is also in the glossary.

The glossary has been divided by theme: Plant varieties, farming tools, types of land, measurements, farming methods.
Eventually, each term will have its own page, but before a proper naming convention must first be created.
Glossary uses a template to list romanizations, alternate translations etc.
Other explanations/definitions and multimedia are listed as regular text
Glossary terms should be in English, or in a revised romanization if no exact translation for English is available.
The first word of a glossary term should be capitalized, but the rest lowercase
