| 1 | Naskh juzʼ min al-Ibṣalmūdīyah — part of the Psalmody. These are the ONLY openly-licensed Coptic church books found in the W-B1 session — everything W10 staged from copticbook.wordpress.com states no terms at all. Verified: Coptic cursive book hand with the Arabic translation in the facing column, red rubrics, a cross at the section end — a genuine bilingual manuscript, not an Arabic-only copy. ⚑ THESE ARE MANUSCRIPTS, NOT PRINTS: the hand is cursive and unpointed, so the OCR models trained on church type will not read them. They are a WITNESS for the Psalmody's text and word division and a palaeographic set; they are NOT the printed Psalmody the wish list asks for, and NOT the annual Katameros. Both of those remain open. |

What the layers are
The text as its witness or edition has it, original spelling; its dialect is a description and is never standardized.
For Egyptian texts: the transliteration with the editors' marks turned into the symbols ° * < > _ ^ (ruled 2026-09-10). For papyri: the edition's Leiden marks as the same symbols, and the editors' readings beside the scribe's as ‹scribe→editors› (ruled PAP-3).
Standardized Greco-Bohairic spelling and grammar, generated by code from the layer above under the rulings of the project.
The Kemetic alphabet, generated by code from L1.
Quoted translations where they exist, credited; otherwise model drafts, marked as drafts.
