Phaidra flavored Markdown

Learning content served to the frontend is parsed through an extended version of Python-Markdown.

Some of the features to enhance ease-of-editing include:

• Setting the language attribute on text
• Highlighting 'tips' for the user.
• Audio elements
• Inflection/Conjugation Tables
  • Cell highlighting
  • Cell check-off

Setting the language attribute on text

All Greek text should be denoted as such, so that we can use the best, most readable font face and size.

[grc]ἡ ἡμέρα[/grc] - the day

Note to self: Can/should Greek be automatically wrapped? What implications would this have for the workflow for other languages (especially those that need special fonts)?

Highlighting 'tips' for the user

**Look out!**

Ancient Greek is full of irregularities!

Audio elements

When you want to embed a sound file on the page.

Inflection/Conjugation Tables

You can use essentially the same syntax as you would to render a normal table in Markdown, but with some added features.

| Case        | Singular  | Plural  |
| ----------- |:---------:| -------:|
| Nominative  | ὁ         | οἱ      |
| Genitive    | τοῦ       | τῶν     |
