The narrative form of the ''Harmony of the Gospel Conservative Version'' is an adaptation of the redacted text of this same encyclopedic feature, using unusual phonetic spellings on the page, and some very peculiar punctuation. This is so that the mechanical limitations of audio computer "Read aloud" function reads it more naturally, as a kind of "radio narrative" for people with bad vision or who are blind, or are simply unable to look at a computer screen or read the printed page for very long. People who simply listen to the Bible being read often get unexpected insights when they can hear it. This is a benefit.  

The narrative form of the ''Harmony of the Gospel Conservative Version'' on Conservapedia is a dedicated audio adaptation of the redacted text of the same encyclopedic feature. The peculiarities of a computerized mechanical audio reading needs to be adapted with the use of unusual phonetic spellings on the displayed print page, along with some very peculiar-looking punctuation and omissions. This is so that the mechanical limitations of the audio computer "Read aloud" function reads it more naturally, as a kind of "radio narrative". This is intended as a dedicated audio form, primarily for people with bad vision or who are blind, or are simply unable to look at a computer screen or read the printed page for very long. But in any case, people who simply listen to the Bible being read often get unexpected insights when they can hear it read. This is a benefit.  

;Chapter headings

;Chapter headings

Chapter headings are not properly a part of the narrative text, so they are not included in the text adapted here for a computer audio narrative of the page readings. Each page of the normal print form of this ''Harmony of the Gospel'' text is seven chapters. Each of these seven-chapter pages is presented in the narrative form of this feature as a continuous reading for listening instead, without any mention of the chapter headings. The chapters of each page being read are mentioned in the heading of the page.

;Text additions

;Text additions

Some minor additions to the text of ''Harmony of the Gospel (Conservative Version)'' have been made, so that the reading is more understandable. For example, instead of abruptly beginning the reading of some of the epistles or some of the historical documents suddenly without any warning, an introductory statement is used, such as "Now this is what he wrote". In some places it's enough to begin the reading of it with the simple word, "Now", followed by the reading. This is so the listener will know what's happening. In the same way, to make clear that the epistle or document reading is finished, a statement saying so is added before going on with the narrative. Some few instances of the information found in the marginal notes of the longer form of ''Harmony of the Gospel'' are very briefly condensed and essentially summarized and inserted for the benefit of the listener. For example, an additional summary statement inserted in the text of Chapter Two, immediately after the quotations from the law of Moses about the vowing of persons to the service of God, as dedicated living offerings set apart as holy to the Lord, and why a daughter, vowed by her parents as a consecrated virgin to "know not a man", should be pledged to become a wife to a man. It says, "And Mary, being vowed to the Lord by her parents when she was a child, and consecrated to him by them as a perpetual virgin to not know a man, a vow she had not made, which her husband therefore could not make void; when the angel told her she would conceive in her womb and bear a son; for this reason she said, 'How can this be?' " The reasoning behind this is dealt with in detail in the marginal notes of the longer form of ''Harmony of the Gospel''. This is followed by a repeat of the conversation with the angel Gabriel. Most questions raised by parts of the New Testament texts that are controversial are tackled by the marginal notes of the longer form.

In some places it's enough to begin the reading of it with the simple word, "Now", followed by the reading. This is so the listener will know what's happening and be able to follow the narrative. In the same way, to make clear that the epistle or document reading is finished, a statement saying so is added before going on with the narrative, such as ending the text of a passage from the Torah with the statement, "This is the law of Moses".  

 

Some few instances of the information found in the marginal notes of the longer form of this Harmony of the Gospel are very briefly condensed and essentially summarized and inserted for the benefit of the listener. For example, a statement is added as a summary of the information from the marginal notes of the longer form, as a statement inserted in the text of Chapter Two, immediately after the quotations from the law of Moses about the vowing of persons to the service of God as dedicated whole living offerings set apart as holy to the Lord.

It explains why a daughter, vowed by her parents as a consecrated virgin to "know not a man", should be pledged to become a wife to a man. It says,  

:"And Mary, being vowed to the Lord by her parents when she was a child, and consecrated to him by them as a perpetual virgin to not know a man, a vow she had not made, which her husband therefore could not make void; when the angel told her she would conceive in her womb and bear a son; for this reason she said, 'How can this be?' "  

This summarizes the reading from the law of Moses that had just been given in the text. The reasoning behind this summarized reading is dealt with in detail in the marginal notes of the longer form of the ''Harmony of the Gospel''. This summarization of the marginal material is followed by a repeat of the conversation with the angel Gabriel, to pick up where the narrative left off with the quotation of texts from the Torah, and going on from there. Most questions raised by parts of the New Testament texts that are controversial are tackled by the marginal notes of the longer form. At the bottom of each page of this narrative form is a link to the longer form of this Harmony of the Gospel, so the listener can access the marginal notes for some explanation of why the text says what it does, as a way of justification for the reading.

;Adapting large paragraphs

;Adapting large paragraphs

In some places of the reading of the text of this ''Harmony of the Gospel (Conservative Version)'' the computer sometimes skips reading whole sections of large continuous paragraphs. For this audio adaptation they have been broken up into smaller segments on the page, to compensate for this kind of mechanical failure to process the whole of the copy. This is in order for the computer to read all of the text it otherwise mechanically fails to read in the normal printed form, without any such omissions, whole and entire, like the Genealogies, and the more extensive sections of the history narrative from [[Josephus]].

;Punctuation

;Punctuation

Visual punctuation on the page has been adapted so that the computer reading of the narrative is smoother and more natural to listen to. These odd-looking punctuations are not errors that need to be corrected by a proofreader. They have been carefully checked for audio accuracy. Mechanical computer reading sometimes abruptly pauses or falters over some of the standard punctuation of regular printed text. In other cases some odd pauses in the mechanical computer reading occur when it encounters a particular word or phrase. Many commas have been removed simply because they produce unnatural pauses in the audio computer reading. But some commas or other useful punctuation marks have been added to provide a pause where necessary, to avoid an unintended hurried reading-through of a sentence without pause, so that the computer reading aloud of the page makes more sense to the listener. A period is sometimes inserted to force a necessary pause in the reading where vocal emphasis is appropriate and natural, where the computer fails to provide for it. Some periods have been removed, because the computer actually reads them as the word "dot", yes, "dot". Question marks, which can be inflected by the human reader as a rising tone of query, or as representing a falling tone at the end of a sentence posing a question, much like the "sound" of a period, are here in this narrative form sometimes positioned after an end-quotation mark to cause a normal rising tone of query, and before an end-quotation mark to cause a normal tone of finality in the sentence of a question, so that the peculiar placement of it on the printed page is not a typographical error, but an accommodation to the limitations of mechanical computer reading in order to cause a proper inflection of tone. With this in mind, almost all quotation marks have been removed for the most part from the page, as unnecessary for a vocal narration. The punctuation of "dashes" in the printed text, normally intended to indicate a pause for emphasis, is totally ignored by the computer reading as if they don't exist, entirely omitting a pause, sometimes even when the dash is disconnected or isolated by a space before and after; and a comma or semi-colon or colon, even a period, or the capitalization of a word in the middle of a sentence, is used instead to produce the same intended effect.

Visual punctuation on the page has been adapted so that the computer reading of the narrative is smoother and more natural to listen to. These odd-looking punctuations and omissions of punctuation are not errors that need to be corrected by a proofreader. They have been carefully checked for audio accuracy. What results is a narrative according to a kind of vocal "manual of style" in speech that is proper to the narration form of the text, but improper on the printed page.

 

Mechanical computer reading sometimes abruptly pauses or falters over some of the standard punctuation of regular printed text. In other cases, some odd pauses in the mechanical computer reading occur when it encounters a particular word or phrase. Many commas have been removed from the display of the print copy, simply because they produce unnatural pauses in an audio computer reading. But some commas or other useful punctuation marks have been added, to provide a pause where necessary, to avoid an unintended hurried reading-through of a sentence without pause, so that the computer reading aloud of the page makes more sense to the listener.  

 

A period or colon is sometimes inserted into the print copy in order to force a necessary pause in the reading where vocal emphasis is appropriate and natural, where the computer fails to provide for it; and sometimes the capitalization of a word in the middle of a sentence is used for the same reason. Some periods have been removed, because the computer actually reads them as the word "dot", yes, "dot", or the period mark has been repositioned to avoid its being pronounced.  

 

Question marks can be inflected by the human reader as a rising tone of query, or as representing a falling tone of challenge or certainty at the end of a sentence posing a question. For this reason, here in this narrative form, question marks sometimes appear on the page following a quotation mark, instead of immediately preceding it, as a quotation-mark-and-question-mark together, the question mark being positioned after the quotation mark, to cause a normal rising tone of query, or without any quotation mark at all in order to cause a normal tone of finality in the sentence of a question, so that the peculiar placement of it on the printed page or its omission entirely is not an error, but an accommodation to the limitations of mechanical computer reading in order to cause a proper inflection of tone. With this in mind, almost all quotation marks have been removed for the most part from the page, as unnecessary for a vocal narration, but when used, appear in conjunction with the question mark. They do not appear as indicating a quotation but as a cue-mark to the automated computer reading for the intended inflection. In some instances, the question mark itself has been replaced by a period, in order to give the proper inflection of tone. A period at the end of a question in this audio adapted narrative form isn't a typo.

 

The punctuation of "dashes" in the printed text, normally intended to indicate a pause for emphasis, is totally ignored by the computer reading as if they don't exist, thus entirely omitting a necessary pause, sometimes even when the dash is disconnected or isolated in the sentence by a space before and after it. For this reason a comma or a semi-colon or colon, or even a period, is used in place of the dash in the regular text, to produce the same intended effect.

;Inverted phrases

;Inverted phrases

In some cases, phrases have been rearranged from the end of a sentence to its beginning or its middle, either because the structure of the sentence as it is, is hard to follow, or because the mechanical reading of the computer breaks up the sentence of the normal text into two or more parts, which it then reads as separate sentences, or dangling phrases, that don't make much sense as read aloud by the computer. It doesn't change the meaning. It's just a necessary adaptation to get around the limitations of mechanical computer reading, which simply makes more sense of the text of the narrative when read that way.

In some cases, phrases or single words have been rearranged from the end of a sentence to its beginning or its middle, either because the structure of the sentence as it is, is hard to follow in the narrative, or because the mechanical reading of the computer breaks up the sentence of the normal text into two or more parts, which it then reads as separate sentences, or dangling phrases, that don't make much sense as read aloud by the computer. The rearrangement doesn't change the meaning. It's just a necessary adaptation to get around the limitations of mechanical computer reading, which simply makes more sense of the text of the narrative when read that way.

;Weird mispronunciations

;Weird mispronunciations

Mechanical computer reading also weirdly mispronounces some proper names of people and even some ordinary words. For example, the name Onesimus is read by the computer as "One sime us". For this reason phonetic spellings have been substituted on the visual display of the page for the sake of proper pronunciation by the Read aloud and Read out loud audio functions of the computer. In the particular case of the computer misreading the name of Onesimus the visual spelling of his name is rendered "O-nessymus". Charism is mechanically read wrongly with a soft "c h" by the computer as if it's the name of a belief called "char-ism", when it should be pronounced with the hard form of "c h" as "care-ism". The name of Decebalus in Suetonius is rendered phonetically on the page as "Desseb ball us". A similar technique of phonetic adaptation is made for other names of people and places, so the computer audio reading will say it right.

;Useless dictionary phonetic forms

;Useless dictionary phonetic forms

;Vocal tense

;Vocal tense

The computer often cannot distinguish the past and present tenses of some words. Sometimes it doesn't use the right inflexion or accentuation of syllables of words in the context of the reading. For example, the past tense of "read", r e a d, is sometimes given by the computer as the verb to read something as if reading right now, "to read it", but for the narrative form on the page the intended past tense of the word needs to be phonetically corrected to r e d, "red", within the context of the text, "I have red this". On the page it doesn't look right, but in the audio computer reading these odd spellings sound right. The word "live" is sometimes read as in "alive", when it should be pronounced "liv", l i v, without the misleading cue of the silent 'e' on the end of the word, which the machine mindlessly interprets as a direction to pronounce the alphabetic character, "eye", ' i ',  as a long vowel, instead of the proper short vowel, according to the context of the verbal tense of the setting within the sentence. The word "untie" is O.K., but the computer reads "untying" as "un-tee-ing". And the computer sometimes pronounces "present" with the accent on the second syllable as presenting something, to "pree Zent" it, and sometimes reads it with the accent on the first syllable as "Prezent" now. The computer forms of pronunciation can also change between episodes of reading the words of the same ordinary text, as when you log off and go away and come back and log on for a second reading of it again and the uncommon words are read differently from before, sometimes changing their meanings, which can be confusing for the listener who can't read print, especially for students who study class-assigned books and materials with the aid of audio readings. For this reason phonetic spellings are used in this narrative form of Harmony of the Gospel in order to produce the right pronunciation in the computer narrative of the text each time. To accommodate the sighted reader of this narrative form of Harmony of the Gospel Conservative Version, all necessary phonetic spellings on the page are bracketed by quotation marks, to show the sighted reader that they are not misspelling accidents or "typos" overlooked by tired proofreaders.

And the computer sometimes pronounces "present" with the accent on the second syllable as presenting something, to "pree Zent" it, and sometimes reads it with the accent on the first syllable of "present", as "Preznt" in attendance. The normal text of the Harmony of the Gospel Conservative Version has been carefully audited to determine where phonetic adaptations are needed in the narrative form.

As an illustration, turn on the Read aloud function on your computer or device, and listen to this page. The term "Read aloud function" can be phonetically adapted as "Reed aloud function", which looks wrong but reads right. Vocally, context is everything when reading out loud. Compare the reading of the text here below of the genealogy from Chapter Five of ''Harmony of the Gospel (Conservative Version) shorter form'' and the phonetic adaptation of the same text from the Harmony of the Gospel Conservative Version narrative form. In the first part of this example the computer's reading omits a large section of the block of text after the fact that Joseph died, skipping everything in the genealogy up to the words "the son of Salmon, the son of Nahshon, the son of Amminadab". Then it reads it from there all the way to the words at the end, "Adam, the son of God", and then it repeats everything it had already read from the same place, starting again with "the son of Salmon, the son of Nahshon, the son of Amminadab", down to the end again, with "Adam, the son of God". This defect in the mechanical computer reading of the regular existing text of this Harmony of the Gospel is eliminated with the adapted phonetic spellings of the narrative form.

For the audio narrative adaptation of this text, this defect in the mechanical computer reading of the regular existing text of this Harmony of the Gospel is eliminated with the dividing up of the paragraph into smaller segments on the page. The computer then reads the whole genealogy without omission with some brief pauses in the sequence. The bizarre audio mispronunciations of the normal standard spellings of some of the names of the genealogy are also corrected by the adapted phonetic spellings of the narrative form.
