<entry>

| ## Text Encoding Initiative
### The XML Version of the TEI Guidelines # <entry>

`<entry>` | contains a reasonably well-structured dictionary entry.
Attributes | Global attributes and those inherited from comp.dictionaries, entries
Example |
Note | Like all elements, `<entry>` inherits an `id` attribute from the class global. No restrictions are placed on the method used to construct `id`s; one convenient method is to use the orthographic form of the headword, appending a disambiguating number where necessary. Identification codes are sometimes included on machine-readable tapes of dictionaries for in-house use.
