Practical examples
A specialist catalogue entry may explore several competing interpretations of an object in detail.
قد تستعرض فقرة في فهرس متخصص عدة تفسيرات متنافسة لقطعة بتفصيل.
A label beside the object has a different task: to help a visitor notice a significant feature and understand its possible meaning.
أما اللوحة بجانب القطعة فلها مهمة مختلفة: مساعدة الزائر على ملاحظة سمة مهمة وفهم معناها المحتمل.
The shorter text should retain uncertainty where the interpretation is disputed.
ينبغي أن يحتفظ النص الأقصر بعدم اليقين عندما يكون التفسير محل خلاف.
