2. Coding of Translation Differences (sentence by sentence in translations) in the above table. a. Follow the coding system: Red = agreement by all four translations (bold);
3 Blue = agreement by three of the four translations (underline); Black = agreement by two of the four translations (italics). If you are going to print out your assignment using a non-color printer, then add the formats list- ed in the parenthesis above to the color coding.
b. Identify all points of agreement (and thus difference by non-marking) in the passage. See the example on Cranfordville.com for illustration.
