A strong's ID **augmentation** identifier, if required, should be separated from the strong value by a colon ``:``. An augmentation is a method of extending Strong's by aligning it to another lexicon (e.g. Brown-Driver-Briggs). This requires dividing some words into two or more separate words.

There are instances where more than one word may need to be included within :ref:`\\w ...\\w* <usfmc_w>` because of how Hebrew and Greek use word repetition - e.g. for a superlative. Exodus 29:37 repeats the word 'holy' as the superlative form.
