Eric,

I have copied your father with this post (noting that I deeply
appreciate your assistance and his in this effort!) to see if I am a
little closer to understanding <mentioned>.

Ephesians 2.11

<verse verseID="Ephesians.2.11">So then, remember that at one time  you
Gentiles by birth, called "the uncircumcision" by those who are called
"the circumcision"--a physical circumcision made in the flesh by human
hands--</verse>

would be marked:

<verse verseID="Ephesians.2.11">So then, remember that at one time  you
Gentiles by birth, called <mentioned>the uncircumcision</mentioned> by
those who are called <mentioned>the circumcision</mentioned>--a physical
circumcision made in the flesh by human hands--</verse>

In researching the source of my confusion on <mentioned> I found in
6.3.4 Terms, Glosses, and Cited Words of the TEI Guidelines:

> Other texts in which individual words or phrases are /mentioned/ (for
> example, as examples) rather than /used/ may mark them either with
> italics or with quotation marks, and will gloss them less regularly.

If I am understanding your examples, the <mentioned> phrase or word is
used by the speaker but they are quoting (in a sense) words in common
usage. It is the distinction between the words of the speaker versus the
words from common usage that <mentioned> is designed to capture. (They
are all still within whatever container has the entire discourse so we
know the speaker "said" these words but can also distinguish quotes from
common usage versus the speaker quoting some identified source.)

Yes, I can see that <quote> would be too clumsy a tool for that
distinction, although I think we will need to feed several of your
examples into the documentation  in an attempt to get consistent usage.


Is this a little closer?

Patrick
