Usage edit

This template may be used to Wiktionary entry pages to quote Sai Kam Mong's book The History and Development of the Shan Scripts (2004) for the purpose of citing a Pali entry. At present, no online version of the book is available for the template to link to.

Parameters edit

The template takes the following parameters:

  • |1= or |page=, or |pages= – the page number(s) quoted from. When quoting a range of pages with |pages=, separate the first and last pages of the range with an en dash, like this: |pages=110–111.
  • |2= or |passage= – a passage to be quoted from the work.
  • |3= or |transliteration= – a transliteration of the passage into the Latin alphabet.
  • |4= or |translation= – a translation of the passage into English
  • |brackets= – use |brackets=on to surround a quotation with brackets. This indicates that the quotation either contains a mere mention of a term (for example, "some people find the word manoeuvre hard to spell") rather than an actual use of it (for example, "we need to manoeuvre carefully to avoid causing upset"), or does not provide an actual instance of a term but provides information about related terms.
