What Bible(s) do you want to add Strongs to?

Do you have a Bible with Strongs that you have permission to use to transfer to another Bible text?

There are different methods for adding Strongs that can work but any of them require looking at it line(verse) by line(verse) to correct(make sure) it is done right.

I will not go into much depth here about except offer some advise from doing such work.

Brent, I believe had the best idea that I have seen thus far in that he eliminated the more common taggings on words perhaps like the personal pronouns and perhaps other incidentals, for instant "who", "which", "that", and/or "if", etc, leaving mainly the proper nouns and verbs....perhaps adverbs and so forth.

This would greatly simplify the transfer process...what one runs into for instant even on "he/him" or "and/now/but" can be in the King James but changed in other versions...that is they can have "now" for "but" or "and"....."he/him" may have more/less entries in a given verse than King James.

iBiblia is the best software for doing this kind of work but it is designed for TheWord and I don't know if the author has any kind of stipulations about using it for another software...perhaps he could be contacted and something could be worked out.

It is possible to transfer Strongs using a computer language but it is necessary to go back through it and fix/correct any wrong taggings and add missed taggings.

Another aspect to consider is if the wording of said bible version is much different from King James, it is necessary either for the one doing this type of work to either have quick access to original language dictionaries...which by the way, iBiblia can do and it would be very helpful if such person has knowledge of Bible languages.....the more, the better.

Have you ever wondered why there aren't many Bibles with Strongs?....Hopefully now you can see the complexity.

I did a New Testament for myself (meaning it isn't perfect) and it took me about 3 to 4 months using iBiblia.

Almost anything is possible to do in regard to creating modules, the biggest problem is no one wants to get involved to help.

Why isn't there anyone stating they want to help out? Some could proof read and correct...

Some may have the ability to ocr, etc.

I see no one wanting to get involved...

It is a real pity, everyone is wanting someone else to do all the work.
