partial / older only. An English translation exists but is partial or older than the critical edition. The gap is a modern, complete translation from the original. A rendering of a daughter version does not count here: it is recorded on the dossier of the text it actually translates.
Why this is in the register
Beta Masaheft records the Ge'ez text in Velat's edition (Meʿerāf, PO 33/1-2, pp. 34-91) and the French translation in Velat's Études (PO 33, pp. 228-296); there is no English entry (https://raw.githubusercontent.com/BetaMasaheft/Works/master/6001-7000/LIT6489SchoolChants.xml). HOLLIS Primo returns only Velat's volumes for 'Me'eraf' (https://hollis.harvard.edu/discovery/search?query=any,contains,Me%27eraf%20Ethiopian%20office&tab=Everything&search_scope=MyInst_and_CI&vid=01HVD_INST:HVD2&offset=0 and nothing for the English phrase 'Ethiopian chant notation' beyond the Shelemay-Jeffery anthology, which is a selection (https://hollis.harvard.edu/discovery/search?query=any,contains,Ethiopian%20chant%20notation&tab=Everything&search_scope=MyInst_and_CI&vid=01HVD_INST:HVD2&offset=0
The record's abstract warns that 'the text parts composing them might vary; further study is needed on the manuscript circulation of this collection' - so the unit translated by Velat may not be a stable text. A translation gap that is partly a textual problem.
