1116,497 <entryFree> entries in 27 LSJ XML files (TEI P4) under CTS_XML_TEI/perseus/pdllex/grc/lsj/ — the Greek lexicon the loanword layer wants. ⚑ FILED AS A STUB, NOT AS TEXT, AND DELIBERATELY SO: THE HEADWORDS ARE IN BETA CODE, NOT UNICODE GREEK (47 Unicode-Greek characters in 271 MB). A real entry reads <orth lang="greek">*ii</orth>, <orth lang="greek">i)w=ta</orth> — i.e. `*ii` is Ἰ and `i)w=ta` is ἰῶτα. A BETA CODE → UNICODE CONVERTER IS THEREFORE A PREREQUISITE before this can be joined to corpus/greek_loanwords.txt or to the SBLGNT/Swete texts beside it, and writing that converter is work nobody has done: it is not attempted here, because converting 116,497 entries with an unverified table would put 116,497 unverified Greek spellings into the repository under CLAUDE.md §1.2. Only the Latin half of the repository was discarded at staging (161 MB, off-mission); nothing was deleted from the zip.

What the layers are

L0 witness
The text as its witness or edition has it, original spelling; its dialect is a description and is never standardized.
L0.5 transliteration
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).
L1 Cairene
Standardized Greco-Bohairic spelling and grammar, generated by code from the layer above under the rulings of the project.
L2 Kemetic
The Kemetic alphabet, generated by code from L1.
English
Quoted translations where they exist, credited; otherwise model drafts, marked as drafts.
