NuBerea Nöldeke Syriac Grammar
A structured digitization of Theodor Nöldeke's Compendious Syriac Grammar (1904 English translation by James A. Crichton, of Nöldeke's Kurzgefasste syrische Grammatik), plus a derived, verse-grain pointer table linking the grammar's scripture citations to Bible loci.

Digitized from a public-domain scan via OCR; structured and citation-resolved by the NuBerea project.
What this is
One row per numbered grammar section (sections), joined against the printed table of contents
(toc) and an expected-section coverage ledger (coverage) tracking which of the book's 382
sections were successfully body-localized from the OCR. noldeke_scripture_loci is a derived
citation-locator table: which grammar sections cite which Bible verse, and what grammatical topic
(section heading) they illustrate — a locator only, it does not quote or reproduce biblical text.
Configs
| config | grain | description | rows |
|---|---|---|---|
sections |
one row per numbered grammar section | Full OCR text of each section (part/chapter/heading/printed_page, prose_text, Syriac examples, raw scripture/cross-reference citations) | 344 |
toc |
one row per printed Contents entry | Hierarchy/join surface parsed from the book's printed table of contents (Part/chapter/roman division/letter division) | 319 |
coverage |
one row per expected section number 1–382 | Presence ledger: which of the 382 expected sections were successfully body-localized from the OCR (344/382, 90.1%) | 382 |
noldeke_scripture_loci |
one row per (section, resolved verse) | Verse-grain citation-locator: which sections cite which Bible verse and the grammatical topic illustrated; citation LOCATOR only, no biblical or grammar prose reproduced | 739 |
What this is not
This is a reference-work digitization pointed at scripture loci, not an adjudicated linguistic
analysis or a grammar-claim extraction layer — sections.prose_text carries Nöldeke's own prose
as OCR'd, and noldeke_scripture_loci is a citation locator, not a verdict about the grammar's
claims.
