Vietnamese offering procedures

Conventions taken

These prayers belong to folk belief and custom; the dataset records them for reference, descriptions are worded as the tradition's own view and promise no outcome. The text in the descriptive columns was rewritten briefly by Nhật Nguyệt from the guidance on the source pages, not copied in passages. A separate row for a region, sub-region, community or trade exists only when a source says so; with no sourced regional difference there is a single toan-quoc row. A folk offering and a pagoda offering for the same rite are two rows. In the le_vat column an item with no bracketed tag is one for which the sources do not say whether it is required. Where two sources disagree, the ghi_chu column states what each says instead of silently choosing one. Source pages of the collected texts whose source is not named (the van-cung-viet-nam dataset, neu_nguon column) are not named here either. Every row is still chua-soat: the text was cut from the source page by script and no person has yet checked each item against it. Code columns (group, region, tradition...) have labels in three languages under danh_muc_ma in the metadata file; the English and Chinese labels are machine translated and not yet reviewed. The Vietnamese descriptive text has no translation yet.
