Replace smooth breathing mark (U+0313) on δ with apostrophe (U+2019) in elided forms of δέ (and compounds ending in -δε such as οὐδέ, μηδέ). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Four proper names beginning with Α (capital alpha with smooth breathing, Ἀ) were OCR'd as Δ with a smooth breathing mark. The fix restores Ἀ in: Ἀλφειός, Ἀδριανούπολις, Ἀφροδιτην, Ἀσσυρι’ων. A fifth nearby case (Δ’αβε for ἔλαβε) involves a different OCR error and is left for manual correction. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
OCR misread the initial "ἔλ" as "Δ" in "Ἰσαὰκ ἔλαβε γυναῖκα τὴν Ῥεβέκκαν" (Isaac took Rebecca as wife). Restore the correct form. Note: "Λβέκκαν" on the same line should likely be "Ῥεβέκκαν", but that is a multi-character OCR error and is left for manual review.

Additionally, several names in data/tlg2371/tlg001/tlg2371.tlg001.1st1K-grc1.xml began with a Δ̓ like Δ̓λφειός. These were most likely alphas rendering Ἀλφειός, etc.
Lastly, a Δ̓αβε in tlg2371 was most likely an ἔλαβε.
