Deklaration

 <rng:ref name="att.global.attributes"/>
 <rng:ref name="macro.paraContent"/>
</rng:element>
element orig { att.global.attributes, macro.paraContent }
Beispiel

If all that is desired is to call attention to the original version in the copy text, orig may be used alone:

<l>But this will be a <orig>meere</orig> confusion</l>
<l>And hardly shall we all be <orig>vnderstoode</orig>
</l>
Beispiel

More usually, an orig will be combined with a regularized form within a choice element:

<l>But this will be a <choice>
  <orig>meere</orig>
  <reg>mere</reg>
 </choice> confusion</l>
<l>And hardly shall we all be <choice>
  <orig>vnderstoode</orig>
  <reg>understood</reg>
 </choice>
</l>
