[sword-devel] English transliteration of Greek or Hebrew words

Note that the new SR GNT is coming within the next few months (after 19 
years of work -- see https://greekcntr.org/resources/1Introduction.mp4). 
The beta was released today on the website at 
https://greekcntr.org/collation/index.htm. (Video at 
https://greekcntr.org/resources/4SRGNT.mp4.) It will be open-licensed 
(and with downloadable files provided) after its beta which is designed 
to get eyes on it and highlight any shortcomings. It contains Strongs 
and morphological data, and a lexicon is coming eventually.

Hopefully we might see it as a Sword module by the end of the year?

Blessings,
Robert (Freely-Given.org)
