Note | Like all elements, entry inherits an xml:id attribute from the class
global. No restrictions are placed on the method used to construct
xml:ids; one convenient method is to use the orthographic form of the
headword, appending a disambiguating number where necessary. Identification codes are
sometimes included on machine-readable tapes of dictionaries for in-house use. |
