Thanks Troy. That helps put the task in perspective... An alternative would possibly be to store both strong and morphology indexes in a relational database. Then have a table mapping all the data together. I guess the mapping table would be based on one version of the Bible only.<div>

We're toyed around with the best way to add lemma+morph searching
in SWORD but haven't finalized anything yet.<br>
<br>
Indexing Morphology codes won't helps. This would give you 2
fields which need to be used together.<br>
<br>
For example, if you wish to find λογος only in the nominative
within 3 words of any present, active, indicative, 2 persons
singular or plural verb, you could not satisfy your search.<br>
<br>
Believe it or not, end users of tools like Bibleworks seem quite
happy to learn odd syntax like:<br>
<br>
<font size="5"><span style="font-family:palatino linotype"></span></font><br>
"λογος@* *@PAI2?"~3<br>
<br>
<br>
Of course GUI tools to help build that syntax for them is also
desired.<br>
<br>
This it the direction we're heading, but would require lemma
encoding changed from strongs to lexical form.<br>
<br>
Presently we could nearly obtain this by building an index as
(from the start of John 1.1):<br>
<br>
G1722@PREP G746@N-DSF G2258@V-IXI-3S<br>
<br>
But this would require users to know strongs numbers rather than
lexical form, which would almost certainly need a GUI to help them
build the search syntax.<br>
<br>
Hope this helps,<br>
