Translation LC Cutter Table
May 5th, 2008
The OSU Libraries Cataloging Department adopts the LC Cutter Table for translations. However, only a limited number of Western languages are being listed on the table. Languages that are not in the table are given extensions consistent with the table so that the alphabetical language subarrangement is preserved. The Cutter numbers for Chinese, Japanese and Korean in the following table are tentative —
| .x | Original work |
| ? | Arabic translation |
| .x12 | Polyglot* |
| .x126 | Chinese translation |
| .x13 | English translation |
| .x14 | French translation |
| .x15 | German translation |
| ? | Hebrew translation |
| .x16 | Italian translation |
| .x163 | Japanese translation |
| .x165 | Korean translation |
| .x17 | Russian translation |
| ? | Persian translation |
| .x18 | Spanish translation |
| ? | Turkish translation |
| ? | Yiddish translation |
* The Cutter for Polyglot is assigned when a work is written in several languages.
