Task of the period

In early period, there were no half-measures: usage was either right or wrong, and it was the task of the grammarian not simply to record alternatives, but to pronounce judgement upon them.

在早期，没有折中办法：（语法）用法不是对就是错，并且语法学家的任务不是简单地记录备选词，而是对它们作出判断。

The task of writing a dictionary begins with the reading of vast amounts of the literature of the period or subject that the dictionary is to cover.

编词典的工作始于博览所编的词典内容所包括的该段时期里该门学科内有关的浩瀚的文献资料。

For all practical purposes, the priority of this task has been lowered during the delay period.

在所有的实践目标中，这个任务的优先级在延迟周期内都被降低。
