Root Zone Label Generation Rules for the Ethiopic Script

Overview

This file contains a set of Label Generation Rules for the Ethiopic script for the Root Zone. For more details on this LGR and its development, see "Proposal for Ethiopic Script Root Zone LGR [Proposal]". The format of this file follows [RFC 7940].

Repertoire

The repertoire of 311 code points is described in Section 5 "Repertoire", in [Proposal] and only includes code points used by languages that are actively written in the Ethiopic script. The repertoire is based on [MSR-4], which is a subset of [Unicode 6.3].

Each code point or range is tagged with the script or scripts that the code point is used with, and one or more references documenting sufficient justification for inclusion in the repertoire, see "References" below. Comments identify the languages using the code point.

Variants

According to Section 6, "Variants" in [Proposal], there are significant numbers of code points that can be used interchangeably in the writing system of the Amharic language. Two code points are variants of each other if they can be used interchangeably in the writing system of the Amharic language and their use yields identical lexical terms for canonical labels (for labels with dictionary meaning) and same or identical representation(s) for non-canonical labels (for labels which do not have dictionary meaning). The Amharic language is the official working language of the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia and many of the states within the federal system. Due to security problems these variants pose, they are treated as script wide variants beyond the Amharic language.

Variant Disposition: All variants are of type "blocked", making labels that differ only by these variants mutually exclusive: whichever label containing either of these variants is chosen earlier would be delegated, while any other equivalent label should be blocked.

This LGR does not define allocatable variants.

The specification of variants in the Root Zone LGR follows the guidelines in [RFC 8228].

Character Classes

This LGR does not define character classes.

Whole Label Evaluation (WLE) and Context Rules

Default Whole Label Evaluation Rules and Actions

The LGR includes the set of required default WLE rules and actions applicable to the Root Zone and defined in [MSR-4]. They are marked with ⍟.

Ethiopic-specific Rules

According to Section 7 "Whole Label Evaluation (WLE) Rules" in [Proposal], this LGR does not define rules specific to Ethiopic.

Methodology and Contributors

The Ethiopic LGR was develeoped by the Ethiopic Generation Panel. For details on methodology and contributors, see Sections 4 and 8 of [Proposal].

Repertoire by Code Point

The following table lists the repertoire by code point (or code point sequence). The data in the Script and Name column are extracted from the Unicode character database. Where a comment in the original LGR is equal to the character name, it has been suppressed.

For any code point or sequence for which a variant is defined, additional information is provided in the Variants column. See also the legend provided below the table.

Legend

Code Point
A code point or code point sequence.
Name
Shows the character or sequence name from the Unicode Character Database. Named sequences are listed with their normative names, for ad-hoc sequences the individual names are shown separated by "+".
Glyph
The shape displayed depends on the fonts available to your browser.
Script
Shows the script property value from the Unicode Character Database. Combining marks may have the value Inherited and code points used with more than one script may have the value Common.
Ref
Links to the references associated with the code point or sequence, if any.
Variants
Link to the variant set the code point or sequence is a member of, except where a coded point or sequence maps only to itself, in which case the type of that mapping is listed.
Comment
The comment as given in the XML file. However, if the comment for this row consists only of the code point or sequence name, it is suppressed in this view. By convention, comments starting with "=" denote an alias.

Summary

Number of variant sets 30
Largest variant set 4
Variants by Type
blocked 98

The following tables list all variant sets defined in this LGR, except for singleton sets. Each table lists all variant mapping pairs of the set; one per row. Mappings are assumed to be symmetric: each row documents both forward (→) and reverse (←) mapping directions. In each table, the mappings are sorted by Source value in ascending code point order; shading is used to group mappings from the same source code point or sequence.

Where the type of both forward and reverse mappings are the same, a single value is given in the Type column, otherwise the types for forward and reverse mappings, as well as comments and references are listed above one another. For summary counts, both forward and reverse mappings are always counted separately.

In any LGR with variant specifications that are well behaved, all members within each variant set are defined as variants of each other; the mappings in each set are symmetric and transitive; and all variant sets are disjoint.

Common Legend

Source
By convention, the smaller of the two code points in a variant mapping pair.
Target
By convention, the larger of the two code points in a variant mapping pair.
Glyph
The shape displayed for source or target depends on the fonts available to your browser.
- forward
Indicates that variant Type, Ref and Comment apply to the mapping from source to target.
- reverse
Indicates that variant Type, Ref and Comment apply to the reverse mapping from target to source.
- both
Indicates that variant Type, Ref and Comment apply to both forward and reverse mapping.
Type
The type of the variant mapping. There are some predefined variant types such as “allocatable” and “blocked”, while others are defined specifically for each LGR.
Ref
One or more reference IDs (optional). A "/" separates references for reverse / forward mappings, if different.
Comment
A descriptive comment (optional). A "/" separates comments for reverse / forward mappings, if different.

4 Classes, Rules and Actions

4.1 Character Classes

The following table lists all named and implicit classes with their definition and a list of their members intersected with the current repertoire (for larger classes, this list is elided).

Name Definition Count Members or Ranges Ref Comment
implicit Tag=sc:Ethi 311 {1200-1206 1208-1248 124A-124D 1250-1256 1258 125A-125D 1260-1286 1288 128A-128D 1290-12AE 12B0 12B2-12B5 12B8-12BE 12C0 12C2-12C5 12C8-12D6 12D8-12F7 1300-...}   Any character tagged as Ethiopic

Legend

Members or Ranges
Lists the members of the class as code points (xxx) or as ranges of code points (xxx-yyy). Any class too numerous to list in full is elided with "...".
Tag=ttt
A named or implicit class defined by all code points that share the given tag value (ttt).
Implicit
An anonymous class implicitly defined based on tag value.

4.2 Whole label evaluation and context rules

The following table lists all named rules defined in the LGR and indicates whether they are used as trigger in an action or as context (when or not-when) for a code point or variant.

Name Regular Expression Used as
Trigger
Anchor Used as
Context
Ref Comment
leading-combining-mark (start)[∅=[[∅=\p{gc=Mn}]∪[∅=\p{gc=Mc}]]]       Default WLE rule matching labels with leading combining marks ⍟

Legend

Used as Trigger
This rule triggers one of the actions listed below.
Used as Context
This rule defines a required or prohibited context for a code point C or variant V.
Anchor
This rule has a placeholder for the code point for which it is evaluated.
Regular Expression
A regular expression equivalent to the rule, shown in a modified notation as noted:
start or end
(start) matches the start of the label; (end) matches the end of the label.
[\p{ }] - property character set
Set of all characters matching a given value for a Unicode property [\p{prop=val}]. Note: uppercase "\P" defines the complement of a property set.
∪, ∩, ∖, ∆ - set operators
Sets may be combined by set operators ( = union, = intersection, = difference, = symmetric difference).
∅= - empty set
Indicates that the following set is empty because of the result of set operations, or because none of its elements is part of the repertoire defined here. A rule with a non-optional empty set never matches.
⍟ - default rule
Rules marked with ⍟ are included by default and may or may not be triggered by any possible label under this LGR.

4.3 Actions

The following table lists the actions that are used to assign dispositions to labels and variant labels based on the specified conditions. The order of actions defines their precedence: the first action triggered by a label is the one defining its disposition.

# Condition Rule / Variant Set   Disposition Ref Comment
1 if label matches leading-combining-mark invalid   labels with leading combining marks are invalid ⍟
2 if at least one variant is in {out-of-repertoire-var} invalid   any variant label with a code point out of repertoire is invalid ⍟
3 if at least one variant is in {blocked} blocked   any variant label containing blocked variants is blocked ⍟
4 if each variant is in {allocatable} allocatable   variant labels with all variants allocatable are allocatable ⍟
5 if any label (catch-all)   valid   catch all (default action) ⍟

Legend

{...} - variant type set
In the "Rule/Variant Set" column, the notation {...} means a set of variant types.
⍟ - default action
Actions marked with ⍟ are included by default and may or may not be triggered by any possible label under this LGR.
