This is intended for short text parts like \foreignlanguage{greek}{Βιβλιοθήκη}. \section{Font Encoding} In Greek text parts, the font encoding is automatically set to LGR if an 8-bit TeX engine is used. (See test-unicode-greek.tex for usage of babel-greek with XeTeX or LuaTeX.) LGR has Greek characters in the slots reserved in a TeX \emph{standard text font encoding}. This means you need an explicit font encoding change for every Latin letter and some other symbols if the current font encoding is LGR. Switching between Latin and Greek script/font encoding is possible without switching the Babel language using the declarations \verb|\latintext|, \verb|\greektext| and the macros \verb|\textlatin|, \verb|\textgreek|. These commands do not start a new paragraph: \greektext Φίλων τοῦ \textlatin{TeX} (ΕΦΤ) -- \latintext Friends (\textgreek{F\'ilwn}) of TeX. ``greek.ldf'' has some workarounds, so that macros relying on Latin characters in the ``right'' positions keep working. We test, that these definitions do not overwrite the selection of pre-composed characters for ``copyright'' and ``registered trade mark'' by ``textcomp'' (try copy and paste from the PDF output): Greek (LGR): \ensuregreek{Α \& Ω, \textcopyright{} \textregistered{} \texttrademark{}, © ® ™ } \\ Latin: A \& O. To prevent Roman numerals being typeset in Greek letters we need to adopt the internal LaTeX commands. Note that this may cause errors when roman numerals are used in a situation where the macros need to be expanded: \makeatletter Greek: \ensuregreek{ \@roman{1}, \@roman{2}, \@roman{3}, \@roman{4}, \ldots, \@roman{1975} \@Roman{1}, \@Roman{2}, \@Roman{3}, \@Roman{4}, \ldots, \@Roman{1975} } Latin: \@roman{1}, \@roman{2}, \@roman{3}, \@roman{4}, \ldots, \@roman{1975} \@Roman{1}, \@Roman{2}, \@Roman{3}, \@Roman{4}, \ldots, \@Roman{1975} \makeatother \section{MakeUppercase, MakeLowercase} Capital Greek letters have diacritics (except the dialytika and sub-iota) to the left (instead of above) and drop them in uppercase, e.g. \ensuregreek{μαΐστρος $\mapsto$ \MakeUppercase{μαΐστρος}}. Upcased letters with diacritics keep the dialytika. This is implemented for all input variants of diacritics with dialytika. (Babel has ``composite command'' definitions to ensure this also works for accent characters "upcased" to the charcter No 159.) \foreignlanguage{greek}{\"i \"'i \"`i \"~i \'"i \`"i \~"i \"u \"\'u \"\`u \"\~u $\mapsto$ \MakeUppercase{\"i \"'i \"`i \"~i \'"i \`"i \~"i \"u \"\'u \"\`u \"\~u }} Tonos and dasia mark a \emph{hiatus} (break-up of a diphtong) if placed on the first vowel of a diphtong (\ensuregreek{\'ai, \'au, \'ei, \'>ai, \>'au, \>'ei}). A dialytika must be placed on the second vowel if they are dropped: (\ensuregreek{\MakeUppercase{\'ai, \'au, \'ei, \'>ai, \>'au, \>'ei}}). \selectlanguage{greek} % from teubner: άυλος/ΑΫΛΟΣ \'aulos $\mapsto$ \MakeUppercase{\'aulos}, \>'aulos $\mapsto$ \MakeUppercase{\>'aulos}, % from http://diacritics.typo.cz/index.php?id=69 μάινα -> ΜΑΪΝΑ m\'aina $\mapsto$ \MakeUppercase{m\'aina}, % from http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neugriechische_Orthographie#Das_Trema % κέικ, ἀυπνία/αϋπνία k\'eik, $\mapsto$ \MakeUppercase{k\'eik} \>aupn\'ia $\mapsto$ \MakeUppercase{\>aupn\'ia} \selectlanguage{english} There are several alternative styles for the capitalized sub-iota.

There is no capital Koppa in LGR, therefore \ensuregreek{ϟ} is left unchanged with MakeUppercase. MakeLowercase: \begin{quote} \MakeLowercase{\GreekAndCoptic}\\ \MakeLowercase{\greekandcoptic} \end{quote} The lowercase of \ensuregreek{Σ} is the «auto-sigma» (\verb+\textautosigma+): \ensuregreek{ΣΣ $\mapsto$ \MakeLowercase{ΣΣ}}. Add a ZWNJ or use the \verb+\noboundary+ macro to prevent conversion to final sigma: \ensuregreek{\MakeLowercase{ΣΣ‌}}. The lowercase of GREEK LETTER STIGMA \ensuregreek{Ϛ} is \ensuregreek{\MakeLowercase{Ϛ}} not \verb|\textvarstigma| (\ensuregreek\textvarstigma). % \newpage \subsection{Greek extended} Characters of the Greek extended Unicode block: \selectlanguage{greek} ἀ ἁ ἂ ἃ ἄ ἅ ἆ ἇ Ἀ Ἁ Ἂ Ἃ Ἄ Ἅ Ἆ Ἇ \\ ἐ ἑ ἒ ἓ ἔ ἕ Ἐ Ἑ Ἒ Ἓ Ἔ Ἕ \\ ἠ ἡ ἢ ἣ ἤ ἥ ἦ ἧ Ἠ Ἡ Ἢ Ἣ Ἤ Ἥ Ἦ Ἧ \\ ἰ ἱ ἲ ἳ ἴ ἵ ἶ ἷ Ἰ Ἱ Ἲ Ἳ Ἴ Ἵ Ἶ Ἷ \\ ὀ ὁ ὂ ὃ ὄ ὅ Ὀ Ὁ Ὂ Ὃ Ὄ Ὅ \\ ὐ ὑ ὒ ὓ ὔ ὕ ὖ ὗ Ὑ Ὓ Ὕ Ὗ \\ ὠ ὡ ὢ ὣ ὤ ὥ ὦ ὧ Ὠ Ὡ Ὢ Ὣ Ὤ Ὥ Ὦ Ὧ \\ ὰ ά ὲ έ ὴ ή ὶ ί ὸ ό ὺ ύ ὼ ώ \\ ᾀ ᾁ ᾂ ᾃ ᾄ ᾅ ᾆ ᾇ ᾈ ᾉ ᾊ ᾋ ᾌ ᾍ ᾎ ᾏ \\ ᾐ ᾑ ᾒ ᾓ ᾔ ᾕ ᾖ ᾗ ᾘ ᾙ ᾚ ᾛ ᾜ ᾝ ᾞ ᾟ \\ ᾠ ᾡ ᾢ ᾣ ᾤ ᾥ ᾦ ᾧ ᾨ ᾩ ᾪ ᾫ ᾬ ᾭ ᾮ ᾯ \\ ᾰ ᾱ ᾲ ᾳ ᾴ ᾶ ᾷ Ᾰ Ᾱ Ὰ Ά ᾼ ᾽ ι ᾿ \\ ῀ ῁ ῂ ῃ ῄ ῆ ῇ Ὲ Έ Ὴ Ή ῌ ῍ ῎ ῏ \\ ῐ ῑ ῒ ΐ ῖ ῗ Ῐ Ῑ Ὶ Ί ῝ ῞ ῟ \\ ῠ ῡ ῢ ΰ ῤ ῥ ῦ ῧ Ῠ Ῡ Ὺ Ύ Ῥ ῭ ΅ ` \\ ῲ ῳ ῴ ῶ ῷ Ὸ Ό Ὼ Ώ ῼ ´ ῾ \selectlanguage{english} MakeUppercase: \selectlanguage{greek} \MakeUppercase{ ἀ ἁ ἂ ἃ ἄ ἅ ἆ ἇ Ἀ Ἁ Ἂ Ἃ Ἄ Ἅ Ἆ Ἇ }\\ \MakeUppercase{ ἐ ἑ ἒ ἓ ἔ ἕ Ἐ Ἑ Ἒ Ἓ Ἔ Ἕ }\\ \MakeUppercase{ ἠ ἡ ἢ ἣ ἤ ἥ ἦ ἧ Ἠ Ἡ Ἢ Ἣ Ἤ Ἥ Ἦ Ἧ }\\ \MakeUppercase{ ἰ ἱ ἲ ἳ ἴ ἵ ἶ ἷ Ἰ Ἱ Ἲ Ἳ Ἴ Ἵ Ἶ Ἷ }\\ \MakeUppercase{ ὀ ὁ ὂ ὃ ὄ ὅ Ὀ Ὁ Ὂ Ὃ Ὄ Ὅ }\\ \MakeUppercase{ ὐ ὑ ὒ ὓ ὔ ὕ ὖ ὗ Ὑ Ὓ Ὕ Ὗ }\\ \MakeUppercase{ ὠ ὡ ὢ ὣ ὤ ὥ ὦ ὧ Ὠ Ὡ Ὢ Ὣ Ὤ Ὥ Ὦ Ὧ }\\ \MakeUppercase{ ὰ ά ὲ έ ὴ ή ὶ ί ὸ ό ὺ ύ ὼ ώ }\\ \MakeUppercase{ ᾀ ᾁ ᾂ ᾃ ᾄ ᾅ ᾆ ᾇ ᾈ ᾉ ᾊ ᾋ ᾌ ᾍ ᾎ ᾏ }\\ \MakeUppercase{ ᾐ ᾑ ᾒ ᾓ ᾔ ᾕ ᾖ ᾗ ᾘ ᾙ ᾚ ᾛ ᾜ ᾝ ᾞ ᾟ }\\ \MakeUppercase{ ᾠ ᾡ ᾢ ᾣ ᾤ ᾥ ᾦ ᾧ ᾨ ᾩ ᾪ ᾫ ᾬ ᾭ ᾮ ᾯ }\\ \MakeUppercase{ ᾰ ᾱ ᾲ ᾳ ᾴ ᾶ ᾷ Ᾰ Ᾱ Ὰ Ά ᾼ ᾽ ι ᾿ }\\ \MakeUppercase{ ῀ ῁ ῂ ῃ ῄ ῆ ῇ Ὲ Έ Ὴ Ή ῌ ῍ ῎ ῏ }\\ \MakeUppercase{ ῐ ῑ ῒ ΐ ῖ ῗ Ῐ Ῑ Ὶ Ί ῝ ῞ ῟ }\\ \MakeUppercase{ ῠ ῡ ῢ ΰ ῤ ῥ ῦ ῧ Ῠ Ῡ Ὺ Ύ Ῥ ῭ ΅ ` }\\ \MakeUppercase{ ῲ ῳ ῴ ῶ ῷ Ὸ Ό Ὼ Ώ ῼ ´ ῾ } \selectlanguage{english} MakeLowercase: \selectlanguage{greek} \MakeLowercase{ ἀ ἁ ἂ ἃ ἄ ἅ ἆ ἇ Ἀ Ἁ Ἂ Ἃ Ἄ Ἅ Ἆ Ἇ }\\ \MakeLowercase{ ἐ ἑ ἒ ἓ ἔ ἕ Ἐ Ἑ Ἒ Ἓ Ἔ Ἕ }\\ \MakeLowercase{ ἠ ἡ ἢ ἣ ἤ ἥ ἦ ἧ Ἠ Ἡ Ἢ Ἣ Ἤ Ἥ Ἦ Ἧ }\\ \MakeLowercase{ ἰ ἱ ἲ ἳ ἴ ἵ ἶ ἷ Ἰ Ἱ Ἲ Ἳ Ἴ Ἵ Ἶ Ἷ }\\ \MakeLowercase{ ὀ ὁ ὂ ὃ ὄ ὅ Ὀ Ὁ Ὂ Ὃ Ὄ Ὅ }\\ \MakeLowercase{ ὐ ὑ ὒ ὓ ὔ ὕ ὖ ὗ Ὑ Ὓ Ὕ Ὗ }\\ \MakeLowercase{ ὠ ὡ ὢ ὣ ὤ ὥ ὦ ὧ Ὠ Ὡ Ὢ Ὣ Ὤ Ὥ Ὦ Ὧ }\\ \MakeLowercase{ ὰ ά ὲ έ ὴ ή ὶ ί ὸ ό ὺ ύ ὼ ώ }\\ \MakeLowercase{ ᾀ ᾁ ᾂ ᾃ ᾄ ᾅ ᾆ ᾇ ᾈ ᾉ ᾊ ᾋ ᾌ ᾍ ᾎ ᾏ }\\ \MakeLowercase{ ᾐ ᾑ ᾒ ᾓ ᾔ ᾕ ᾖ ᾗ ᾘ ᾙ ᾚ ᾛ ᾜ ᾝ ᾞ ᾟ }\\ \MakeLowercase{ ᾠ ᾡ ᾢ ᾣ ᾤ ᾥ ᾦ ᾧ ᾨ ᾩ ᾪ ᾫ ᾬ ᾭ ᾮ ᾯ }\\ \MakeLowercase{ ᾰ ᾱ ᾲ ᾳ ᾴ ᾶ ᾷ Ᾰ Ᾱ Ὰ Ά ᾼ ᾽ ι ᾿ }\\ \MakeLowercase{ ῀ ῁ ῂ ῃ ῄ ῆ ῇ Ὲ Έ Ὴ Ή ῌ ῍ ῎ ῏ }\\ \MakeLowercase{ ῐ ῑ ῒ ΐ ῖ ῗ Ῐ Ῑ Ὶ Ί ῝ ῞ ῟ }\\ \MakeLowercase{ ῠ ῡ ῢ ΰ ῤ ῥ ῦ ῧ Ῠ Ῡ Ὺ Ύ Ῥ ῭ ΅ ` }\\ \MakeLowercase{ ῲ ῳ ῴ ῶ ῷ Ὸ Ό Ὼ Ώ ῼ ´ ῾ } \selectlanguage{english} \section{Babel Strings} Babel defines macros for several autogenerated strings so that they may appear in the choosen language. babel-greek uses LICRs in order to let the string macros work independent of the font encoding, in both 8-bit and Unicode-aware TeX. \subsection{Captions} \selectlanguage{greek} \prefacename, \refname, \abstractname, \bibname, \chaptername, \appendixname, \contentsname, \listfigurename , \listtablename, \indexname, \figurename, \tablename, \partname, \enclname, \ccname, \headtoname, \pagename, \seename, \alsoname, \proofname, \glossaryname, \selectlanguage{english} \subsection{Months} \selectlanguage{greek} \newcounter{foo} \stepcounter{foo} \month=\value{foo} \today \\ \stepcounter{foo} \month=\value{foo} \today \\ \stepcounter{foo} \month=\value{foo} \today \\ \stepcounter{foo} \month=\value{foo} \today \\ \stepcounter{foo} \month=\value{foo} \today \\ \stepcounter{foo} \month=\value{foo} \today \\ \stepcounter{foo} \month=\value{foo} \today \\ \stepcounter{foo} \month=\value{foo} \today \\ \stepcounter{foo} \month=\value{foo} \today \\ \stepcounter{foo} \month=\value{foo} \today \\ \stepcounter{foo} \month=\value{foo} \today \\ \stepcounter{foo} \month=\value{foo} \today \\ \selectlanguage{english} \section{Greek Numerals} See greek.pdf for the formation rules of Greek numerals.
