{{lit}}
{{literal}}
{{literally}}

This template uses single quotation marks ('…'), because Wikipedia's Manual of Style at calls for simple glosses to be enclosed this way.

Usage

{{literal translation}} → lit.
{{literal translation|lk=yes}} → lit.
{{literal translation|lk=no}} → lit.
{{literal translation|a}} → lit. 'a'
{{literal translation|''a'' A}} → lit. 'a A'
{{literal translation|a|b}} → lit. 'a' or 'b'
{{literal translation|a|b|c|d}} → lit. 'a' or 'b' or 'c' or 'd'

For now, the template takes up to four separate translations (|a|b|c|d). If each meaning is a single word, using serial commas is another stylistic choice: |a, b, c, d.

Unlinking (|lk=no) avoids cluttering the same paragraph or list with repetitive overlinking of "lit.".

Formats the literal translation of a word or phrase per Manual of Style guidelines.
