> I am still not happy with it. How many centuries of orthography is this tag supposed to support? Whatever is in Khmer script that's written in an old spelling. How does it matter? > What process will be able to do anything with it? The database I'm needing subtags for is mainly bibliographical, it has the title for each text in two flavors: the original (old) spelling as appearing on the manuscript, and the equivalent in modern spelling (Chuon Nath style). > And again, what are the reforms? What are their dates? The reform process is long and complex. I have put the reference to this article describing it several times: https://englishkyoto-seas.org/2015/04/vol-4-no-1-sasagawa/ I'm not sure what else I can do... Should I copy paste the article content into an email? Here's a short summary: 1915: establishment of the committee for editing a Khmer dictionary, start of the debates between phonetic vs. etymological spellings 1926: establishment of a second committee led by Chuon Nath, using mostly etymological spellings 1920s: printeries using mostly reformed orthography, as it was largely under the control of those who favored reform (including the French and reformist monks at the Institut Bouddhique), whereas manuscripts were generally produced by traditional scribes and scholars and used non-reformed orthography 1938: first edition of the Dictionnaire Cambodgien by Chuon Nath 1967: 5th and final edition of the Dictionnaire Cambodgien 1967-1974: Khmer becomes main language in education 1972: reform by Loch Phlaeng and the Khmerization movement (more based on phonetic, less letters, less diphtongues), used officially from 1985 to 2009 2009: official use reverts to Chuon Nath's Dictionnaire Cambodgien So I suppose you could arbitrarily pick 1967 and 1972 as dates for the two reforms, but it's not clearcut at all. > Our tags generally point TO a reference, and don’t specify themselves by relation to what they are NOT. Well, I guess I'll keep this in a private subtag then. There's no homogeneity in the pre-reform Khmer spelling. There is no tag that could be defined to point TO it, because it doesn't exist as a homogeneous concept that can be agreed upon. > What sort of Khmer? Modern Khmer (whenever that dates from and to)? Or is this tag supposed to include Old and Middle Khmer? Why does it matter? My data has whatever Khmer there is in the Buddhist texts from the 16th to the 20th century (most of them copied from previous sources, there is no way of knowing when a manuscript started to circulate so some probably predate the 16th c.). For what it's worth, I also have a lot of Pāli written using old Khmer spelling. > As to the reform or reforms, should there be a subtag that points to an authoritative source for one or more of these? 1967 edition of the "Dictionnaire Cambodgien" by Chuon Nath could be a good reference for the first one For the second reform, I have no source... It it talked about in the article from 2015 and in https://www.persee.fr/doc/befeo_0336-1519_1999_num_86_1_3414 but I don't have an exact reference. I'll try to get one. > This is underspecified and it’s not satisfactory so far. And it will not be specified further because it cannot. I suppose one way to unlock the situation would be to propose a subtag for Chuon Nath's spelling style, I'll do that let's see how it goes.
