A distinct grouping of glossary definitions, usually preceded by a title that identifies the grouping (e.g., “Definitions for Students”).
The intent of glossary groups is to allow glossaries to be divided into headed sections, recursively deep, where each section can be about a special topic or category of terms.
Typical content of such a Glossary Group is a title that names the group, a paragraph of explanation that defines the group or explains any exclusions, and then a series of term/definition pairs tagged inside a Definition List <def-list>.
The following, in order:
<article>... <back> <glossary> <title>Glossary Terms, Acronyms, and Abbreviations</title> <gloss-group> <title>Abbreviations</title> <def-list> <def-item> <term id="G15">F</term> <def><p>female</p></def> </def-item> <def-item> <term id="G29">gnty</term> <def><p>genotype</p></def> </def-item> <def-item> <term id="G43">M</term> <def><p>male</p></def> </def-item> </def-list> </gloss-group> <gloss-group> <title>Acronyms</title> <def-list> <def-item> <term id="G62">NIH</term> <def><p>National Institutes of Health</p></def> </def-item> <def-item> <term id="G12">XML</term> <def><p>Extensible Markup Language</p></def> </def-item> </def-list> </gloss-group> <gloss-group> <title>Virology Terms and Phrases</title> <def-list> <def-item> <term id="G71">HBV</term> <def><p>hepatitis B virus</p></def> </def-item> <def-item> <term id="G33">HBsAg</term> <def><p>hepatitis B surface antigen</p></def> </def-item> </def-list> </gloss-group> </glossary>... <ref-list>... </ref-list> </back> </article>
