This may be a long shot, but could anybody help me find a Bible in Oriya?
Last year I did some research into Unicode PUA characters and discovered some unencoded Taiwanese & Hakka characters. I wrote a proposal to add them to Unicode, and a blog post on Medium (called Hakka news).
Now I've done the same for all languages on Bible.com, and I'm trying to compare with printed copies to know what the text should say.
- jfk13 7y agoTry https://odia.bible https://odia.bible ?
- peterburkimsher 7y agoIt's the right translation! I emailed them, but they don't really understand my question and take a long time to reply.
- j0e1 7y agoYou can find an online version here https://vachanonline.com/ https://vachanonline.com/ . If you are looking for the data, here is a repository: https://git.door43.org/BCS-BIBLE/Odiya-ULB-NT.BCS https://git.door43.org/BCS-BIBLE/Odiya-ULB-NT.BCS That is the New Testament only, the Old Testament can be found in the same way.
- peterburkimsher 7y agoI can already get the online version! The trouble is that I can see some PUA codes being used in the text. https://www.bible.com/bible/1749/1KI.4.20.ODIAOV-BSI https://www.bible.com/bible/1749/1KI.4.20.ODIAOV-BSI https://www.bible.com/bible/1749/2KI.16.17.ODIAOV-BSI https://www.bible.com/bible/1749/2KI.16.17.ODIAOV-BSI https://www.bible.com/bible/1749/ROM.6.16.ODIAOV-BSI https://www.bible.com/bible/1749/ROM.6.16.ODIAOV-BSI No idea if these will appear in the comment, but let's try: U+F020 U+F02F U+F0A0 If I can compare to scans of a printed copy, then I'll be able to know what the characters should be (and therefore whether they're already in Unicode).
