3 An interpolation is an [[addition>>doc:stemmatology.Addition.WebHome]] that is introduced into the [[text>>doc:stemmatology.Text.WebHome]] either involuntarily or voluntarily, but was in the first place written not by accident but in an attempt to restore or otherwise improve the text.

5 Such a case is e.g., a marginal note, like a commentary or a [[gloss>>doc:stemmatology.Gloss.WebHome]], that is accidentally introduced into the text itself during the [[copying>>doc:stemmatology.Copying of texts.WebHome]], either instead of what it was supposed to explain or in addition to it. An interpolation may also consist in a deliberate introduction of any new elements (cf. [[copying of texts>>doc:stemmatology.Copying of texts.WebHome]]). The term is sometimes used also about deliberate changes in a text which has been modified for usage in the schools or which has been modified not only in its contents but also in its orthographic and grammatical form.
