Note

The name g is short for gaiji, which is the Japanese term for a non-standardized character or glyph.

Examples

<g ref="#ctlig">ct</g>

This example points to a glyph element with the identifier ctlig like the following:

<glyph xml:id="ctlig">
  <!-- here we describe the particular ct-ligature intended -->
</glyph>
<g ref="#per-glyph">per</g>

The medieval brevigraph per could similarly be considered as an individual glyph, defined in a glyph element with the identifier per-glyph as follows:

<glyph xml:id="per-glyph">
  <!-- ... -->
</glyph>
