Note

The witDetail element was formerly permitted anywhere that note could appear, but since it should only be used in association with lem and rdg, it is recommended that it be placed immediately following the reading that it modifies, in the same app. A witDetail without a @target attribute should be assumed to refer to the closest preceding lem or rdg.

Example

<app type="substantive">
  <lem xml:id="W026x" wit="#El #HG">Experience</lem>
  <rdg wit="#Ha4">Experiens</rdg>
  <witDetail target="#W026x" resp="#PR" wit="#El" type="presentation">Ornamental capital.</witDetail>
</app>
