I’m having a problem with 2nd level quotation marks and synchronization:
Exodus 3 in Paratext:
\v 13 Móyiis naañahan Pútuun pa: “Iyyoo! Niŋ inci fakaay pati pakani pakati Israyel insokii: ‘Pútuun pa piti símaama aluu púpoñiyaam ti aluu,’ pikee pa nkacakanam: ‘Caacaw etempo puume?’ Puume inci fañahanii?” \v 14 Pútuun pa mpusok Móyiis: “Inci yem aŋa inci iyyem ya.a Fiye aafasok pakati Israyel: ‘Inci Yem ápoñiyaam taaluu.’” \v 15 Pútuun pa nene pusok Móyiis: “Fiye áafakup niŋ pakati Israyel: ‘\w Ateeteyo\wb ápoñiyaam ti aluu, Pútuun pa piti símaama aluu, Pútuun pa piti \w Abraham\w, Pútuun pa piti \w Isaak\w* niŋ Pútuun pa piti \w Jakob\w*.’ Aŋe eyem caacawam fo eket maama, ti caacaw encuu pakan paka efinkayonkalam ti \w ekaay\w* óo ekaay.

15a Pútuun pa nene pusok Móyiis:
15b “Fiye áafakup niŋ pakati Israyel:
15c 'Ateeteyo ápoñiyaam ti aluu,
15d Pútuun pa piti símaama aluu,
15e Pútuun pa piti Abraham,
15f Pútuun pa piti Isaak niŋ Pútuun pa piti Jakob.
15g ’ Aŋe eyem caacawam fo eket maama,
15h ti caacaw encuu pakan paka efinkayonkalam ti ekaay óo ekaay.
The problems appear in 13e, 13g, 15g where the single straight quote mark should be attached to the end of the previous phrases, and not appear unattached at the start of these phrases.
I have set up audio synchronization to use these punctuation marks to end phrases: . ? ! : ; ,
If I add the ’ to these punctuation marks, it solves the first problem, but creates a new one by isolating the opening single quote and considering it a phrase alone. In the timing file, the identical timing is shown for the ’ and the following phrase eg:
13d ’ 4:45:00
13e Pútuun pa piti símaama aluu púpoñiyaam ti aluu,’ 4:45:00
It seems there needs to be a way of specifying the single right quote mark following any character so that it doesn’t pick up the opening left quote mark too.
I’d appreciate any help you can give!
