This is a sample text written in MTSS (Manuscript

Transcription Simple Syntax), a simple language that

can be automatically translated into TEI.||Sentences can be

terminated with double pipes.||Line breaks are simply

defined by inserting

newline characters.||A word that's splitted by a line break

can be marked by using two curly braces, as in this {{exam

ple}}.||Abbreviated words can be annotated with the

corresponding expansion by using a combination of square

and round brackets: [abbr.](expansion).||
