This project team has been engaged in an experiment involving the development of a transcription scheme for Ottoman Turkish texts that would be reversible to an Arabic/Ottoman script version as well as to versions both in the common Ottoman transcription alphabet and in the Modern Turkish alphabet. The first stage of this experiment has been the production of a model scheme, the development of conversion files for testing the scheme, and a paper outlining the experiment. The team is in the process of creating word macros to automate some aspects of the conversion from Ottoman transcription alphabet texts to reversible texts and seeking scholars who will help test the reversible model.
