Beispiel

Wenn es nur darum geht, auf die originale Version der Textvorlage hinzuweisen, kann das orig-Element auch allein verwendet werden:

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

In der Regel wird ein orig-Element mit einer normalisierten Form in einem choice Element kombiniert:

<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>
