Summary

  • Certify Gibran's On Giving as a 32-unit translation under Phi's isolated two-layer process.
  • Register the stored Gibran witness for exact source reconstruction and teach the checker to ignore standalone Project Gutenberg illustration labels.
  • Update the corpus review, development records, NTP-05 queue, and generated certification ledger.

Translation evidence

The 33 ordered gibran citations reconstruct all 2,746 normalized source characters. The final 32-unit Phi stream freezes at SHA-256 a7fdd1387cbc36e53080fc97cd1bdcba9069b363b49f877ba1ba24093bbd57fb; its aligned page digest is 261d6c12e19d5ee42fd6a5a2d26f9958f35de2099d0410f57c03f0a48089dd6d.

The source-to-Phi phase was settled before any English derivation. A fresh source-blind context derived the complete first freeze. The first independent queue covered 22 units: 20 selected for structural risk and deterministic samples 19 and 29. Its report hash was 17ae20cbf3458ad1421057724310dbb1cba6cd198570b403ba39da5dd9943d21.

That review exposed real problems with reflexive possession, relative-clause roles, participant continuity, noun attachment, and nested complement scope. The affected English was discarded before the Phi changed. Fresh retry packets then covered only changed units; unchanged readings stayed attached to unchanged unit hashes. A second independent queue covered 20 units, including deterministic samples 16 and 19, and produced report hash 161a1216d12387276fdb5bb07ca5d4629e2380ca588cab388c6391e3181cde32.

Later retries made the dog itinerary, one future day, ocean and cup, uncovered worth, giver and instrument, gratitude, parent relations, and wings explicit. The final targeted audit covered Units 6, 20, 26, 28, 29, 30, 31, and 32. It prompted one last Unit 6 repair so that "tomorrow's bringing" has no unnamed possible agent. A fresh one-unit derivation and independent check replaced only that unit's English; the final check has report hash 69df4d6cd7d360caeb91afd9dc00adf5f4260a17bde72a31a1dfe9962f51a35d.

Unit 31 required no repair: lila closes its purpose clause at the first complete lexical predicate, and loami loa miona is the noun phrase governed by nia. The remaining notes about repeated ha miona describe ordinary discourse reference, not a participant or scope conflict. No vocabulary, registered compound, function word, or grammar was added.

The page's reader-facing prose received a separate Humanizer and Phi-voice pass. That pass collapsed repeated contract-like boundary lists into direct distinctions and kept the dog itinerary and myrtle note as the page's two lighter touches.
