Template:Text and translation

From Seeds of the Word, the encyclopedia of the influence of the Gospel on culture


This template allows for the presentation of text in a language other than English alongside an English translation of that text. It is primarily designed for rendering poetic texts and their translations in parallel columns that are responsive to devices with display sizes smaller than a personal computer's screen. That is, on a large screen the text and translation are displayed side-by-side, reducing unsightly white space, but on a smaller screen they are presented one below the other.
