Spaces

Remember, in contents put spaces only where you want them. As much as you want.

This following WRONG encoding

<roleName type="title">ʾaṣe</roleName>Galāwdewos 

will always return this result

ʾaṣeGalāwdewos

if you want the space between ʾaṣe and Galāwdewos or any other two words, please, remember to have it (there is a rule for this particular case, see <roleName>↗, but not always!). On the other side, the following two are equal in XML

<roleName type="title">ʾaṣe</roleName>                   Galāwdewos
         

<roleName type="title">ʾaṣe</roleName>

Galāwdewos

Similarly, spaces in elements, attributes and values where they do not belong are wrong, even if not marked as an error by the schema:

<persName xml:lang="gez " xml:id="n1">ባይሞት፡</persName>
