<p class="MsoNormal">Is anyone out there comfortable with the ALA/LC Ladino romanization table? I have some high school Spanish (from many decades ago!) and can piece together words and I’m doing the best I can with the romanization table.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’m having trouble romanizing <span lang="HE" dir="RTL" style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;background:yellow;mso-highlight:yellow">âéãééåñ</span><span dir="LTR"></span><span dir="LTR"></span><span dir="LTR"></span><span dir="LTR"></span>.
The <span lang="HE" dir="RTL" style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">â</span><span dir="LTR"></span><span dir="LTR"></span><span dir="LTR"></span><span dir="LTR"></span> has a hacek on top. My attempt was Jidyos. Am I close? At least I know it means “Jews.”<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">My other problem is identifying what I believe could be an edition statement (or not):
<span lang="HE" dir="RTL" style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;background:yellow;mso-highlight:yellow">
ôøéîéø áåìåîéï</span><span dir="LTR"></span><span dir="LTR"></span><span dir="LTR"></span><span dir="LTR"></span>. The
<span lang="HE" dir="RTL" style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">ô</span><span dir="LTR"></span><span dir="LTR"></span><span dir="LTR"></span><span dir="LTR"></span> has a dagesh. I’m guessing the first word means “first.” I can’t figure out what
<span lang="HE" dir="RTL" style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">áåìåîéï</span><span dir="LTR"></span><span dir="LTR"></span><span dir="LTR"></span><span dir="LTR"></span> is. I don’t have a Ladino dictionary of any sort (I’m ordering one) and Google Translate
doesn’t have Ladino as an option. Does this phrase indicate an edition statement?<span lang="HE" dir="RTL" style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="HE" dir="RTL" style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">FWIW, I’m deriving NLI’s Hebrew record for this book (OCLC #233177838).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I think it would be helpful to know who in our cataloging community has expertise in less common Hebraic script languages like Ladino and Judeo-Arabic. It used to be that Zachary Baker (now retired) was the expert in Ladino and Rachel
Simon and Joan Biella (both retired) were the experts in Judeo-Arabic. If there are experts in some of the other Hebraic script languages besides those (i.e. Judeo-Tajik, Judeo-Persian, etc.), it would be great to know that as well!<o:p></o:p></p>
